[Adam W.]

How do you do that? That smudgy thing?

I generally mark things (with a sharp pencil) to leave the line on when I cut them.

About the only exception is when cutting with the track saw I mark the line to be cut off, if it was marked to be left on it would be under the rail and you wouldn't be able to see it.

Went from splitting the line, to crossing the line and splitting hairs.

I thought splitting the line was a dance that happens at Ceilidhs which Scot’s seem to know instinctively how to do …

Did Alan Turing identify as binary?

Did Arthur Askey have EBCDIC?

I'll raise you Stanley Unwin , or Hilda Baker.
I seem to remember Stanley Unwin doing a woodwork "sketch"..Hilda Baker was definitely near the line..

If you put the ruler in the right place the edge of the pencil line facing the ruler is in the right place- if the middle of the line was to be in the right place you’d have to somehow mark underneath the ruler…

You need the festool tracksaw pencil adapter

Everybody keeps mentioning torsion boxes. It's a wind up!

I can trump (NO, not Donald, that would be Duck) you all with Tommy Cooper, "Just like that!".

I was wondering if anyone had views on ‘splitting the line’ when sawing. I’m trying to improve my sawing accuracy after seeing joints coming in a saw kerfs width narrow.

My assumption is that I should start sawing so the kerf lines up to the waste side of the line, not directly down the middle of it…?

(I’m amateur and self taught, so apologies if this is a very basic question!).

Half the line on the side you want should still be visible.

It sounded impossible when I started out as an apprentice but with practice and time it’s fairly easy.

 

[HamsterJam]

Forgot to say - in general a marking knife is best avoided and if used at all only for those few cuts which will be visible.

And I was using one just yesterday evening
