@ThriftDiving. I am planning to buy your recommended circular corded saw Ryobi. Is there any suggestion on Saw table that won;t break the bank? seems like tables are much more costlier than the saw it self.
I'm a 48 year-old dude with a lot of life experience but new to power tools, and this was the most informative video I've found on circular saws for beginners like me.
I'm completely intimidated by power tools but started with a pneumatic hammer, and made an amazing closet. Start with a project you need, it will work out.
47 here and I am very handy but this helped me a great deal since I was not familiar with a circular saw, though I have owned one for almost a year. I use my reciprocating saw heavily but need to use the circular.
I just got my first circular saw yesterday to do some home projects and haven't used one before. Thanks alot for this video is very helpful and I'm eager to learn and apply the knowledge! 😁👍🏻
I was skeptical clicking on play to this video when seeing all the Ryobi tools, but I was wrong to be skeptical. You know your stuff!!! This video was very informative! Thank you for posting it!
Literally tried the handsaw and didn’t finish a single cut it was altogether too much. I think it’s time to put away the fear and just invest in the power saw.
This is such an awesome video! 🤙🏼 🔥 I love woodworking but have been super nervous to get back into using these tools without a pro by my side. You make the steps and safety measures super easy to follow! It’s nice to see a woman confident in her wood working skills and helping us newbies for a change!! You definitely empower women across the globe to pursue their passion for woodworking, so thank you!!! 🙏🏼
Thank you so much for these Ryobi tool videos. I was afraid of my circular saw, and was fine with it after watching this one. The same with your jigsaw video! My mantra is now "if Serena can do it, so can I".
Honestly, the BEST video I've seen on how to use this saw! The demonstration and extra information and different styles are so extremely helpful, you have no idea!!! THANK YOU!!!
I’m usually sexist when it comes to learning about tools but you were the only one who did a how to on this saw and I’m really glad I found your video! Not only did you explain a lot, you seem to like Ryobi just like me lol. Subscribed! 👍🏽
IMPORTANT: Always keep both hands on the circular saw for safety. Buy a set of clamps and always clamp down your pieces before you cut them to keep them stable and to allow both hands on the saw. The circular saw is the most useful and the most dangerous.
Yeah. Some serious precautions were missed here. People will do this without clamps after seeing this video and end up with severe injuries. Big thumbs down.
@@Shaun1985two hands isn’t always needed and neither are clamps. What you do need is “support” to make sure the board is secure so when you make the cut the saw or board doesn’t slip.
Thank you! The instructions manuals are always a nightmare to read thru and every other video I've found doesn't really explain much and I was getting frustrated. This was great! 🙌
Oh my gosh! I’ve had a small circular saw and haven’t been brave enough to try it. It came in a bundle. I’ve tackled the air strike, love it and jigsaw. I have used all your tutorials to get me motivated. I am using my circular saw today! I am Serena! Thanks! 👊🏼
Thank you for keeping it short and simple with your explanations and not talking too slow or distracted or Ums while still hitting lots of really good points! Easy to watch video.
Hi Serena, just happened upon your video and watched it, so late to the comments. I always like to watch and check out any “how to’s “ concerning Circular saws. A lot of misguided and downright unsafe videos on RUclips. I must say, I enjoyed your video, and a big thumbs up! You easy on the eyes as well! 😄😉😉 I appreciate your approach and your comments on safety, and oh my gosh, you cut correctly with the saws! An Old timer told me long ago, ‘blade side, waste side.’ You were using left handed blade saws here, and I realize that it is not always practical to cut that way. But the wider part of the base should be on the uncut portion of the material. But, I digress. Short, concise, and solid video. Maybe a bit too short, but you covered most of the basics. Just wanted to say hi. You don’t need my approval. 😉 Thanks for promoting safe and sensible usage of this potentially harmful tool! Stay safe and Healthy! 👍👍👍🙏✌🏻😁🇺🇸
Thank you for this informative info. You take the fear out of using a saw. I am a 68 year old woman looking to replace my rotten front steps and you have given me the confidence to do it.
Ty ty ty. I had returned to rural Pa. to care for my Mom til she died. Now, I'm semi-retired in our 100 year homestead. I'm used to living in condos dangling over LA canyons n people operated elevators walking distance from our Whitehouse. If something required attention, I'd summon matainace. So, in the basement are the tools I bought for my Daddy 30 years ago. The Craftsman saw looks at me. I pick it it up n put it down n choose a hand saw. Make me fearless. Oh, I luv this LL Bean stuff. Ok. I'm gonna watch now.
Hey there, Dave! It sounds like you've got some tooling to do. :) I actually want to learn to use a hand saw now!! I saw my carpentry teacher with one and I'm curious, very curious. Sounds like I've got some hand tooling to do myself. :) You can do it with the circular saw.
I love you videos you do more work than any youtuber you actually have to build thing and you actually teach people stuff yet you are not noticed love you.😀😁👍❤🔨⛏⚒🛠🗡📏📐🔧🔩🛒⛓🔗
LOL, exactly! It's very time consuming doing videos and blog posts, but that I actually have to MAKE stuff. I talk to other bloggers who just write and I'm like, "But you're just writing. I could write all day!" But doing projects, filming them, editing them, is time consuming. But once you do it and hopefully do it well, the video lives on forever. :) Thank you for the kudos!
Thank you Serena I am in my early 60's and have been struggling with power tools for years, but your reassuring and no nonsense explanation has shown me the way. Thank you. I am now the proud owner of a Jig & circular saw. Thanks once again
YAY!! So glad to hear that, Richard! :) That's awesome news. I can't wait to see what you do with those tools. Feel free to send me pictures! serena@thriftdiving.com
I just received a Ryobi 5 1/2" circular saw I ordered on Amazon. I have never used an type of power saw so needed some tutorials, this tutorial has really helped. I will probably watch it several times before actually using my little saw.
I was lucky to have a dad who believed everyone needed to learn and use hand and power tools. I love my battery powered tools. By the way, I loved seeing you in the Duluth catalog!
You WERE lucky, indeed! My grandfather was a carpenter but he retired way before I became interested in power tools. I never got to learn from him, but he was proud of me following in his footsteps! He would be overjoyed to know I am in carpentry classes! :) Oh, and glad you enjoy the catalogs! I always am a little shocked to see myself in there, too. LOL
I just unpacked my Ryobi 7 1/4 cordless circular saw and watching your tutorial helped so much! Thank you for your tips and for taking the mystery out of using a circular saw. You ROCK Serena!!!
I bought a circular saw about a month ago. had someone else cut the wood I needed because I was to nervous to try the saw 🤦🏽♀️. After watching this, I think I will give it a try. Thanks😊
THANK YOU! I have watched a bunch of tutorials on how to use my circular saw. Every single dude did not even mention that there was a safety button. I was supposed to be psychic and just know despite never having been around these tools ever before.
Question...Question....First of all your presentation on how to use a jigsaw was awesome! Being a new DIY'er I really appreciate your Thrift Diving. So now on to the question...and anyone can answer this politely. I'm installing a cat door for an indoor doorway. I carefully leveled the template, then drew the lines. After drilling the lead holes as instructed I began to use my Ryobi Jigsaw for the first time. I'll tell you...I'm still a little nervous but, getting use to it. My door in a metal one with foam insulation and has the square beveled panels. My cut started real smooth, using your direction for almost the entire top of my square template. When it got to the end the jigsaw kicked back and the blade broke. I diligently replaced it after removing the battery and started at another lead point from the bottom up the side. Again, pretty smooth until I got another kickback and broken blade. It seems that when I get to the beveled portion of the cut this occurs. How can I cancel this kick back-broken blade curse???
Thanks for explaining how to operate the Ryobi circular saw. I will for sure buy one today from Home Depot. You make it look easier, but i'll see if it's really simple to use. Anyway thanks again for your video.
I have a Dewalt Circular saw, but I'm still trying to organize a work area. I will ALWAYS be open to learning more..so thank you so much for your teaching videos. We all have a learning curve to overcome. Keep up the good work and many blessings..from your Southern MD sister..MLG aka fruitfullspirit
Maryland in da house! :) I hear ya on the work area set up. That's the hardest part. It has to be a place that can get dirty, yet can be organized, too, for all your things. It takes time. :)
I learned a new word today Thanks to you "Kerf". I have a skill saw but can not cut a straight line. I will try using some of your methods. I know it will work. It's frustrating not being able to use a board I cut when it's not straight, nothing will line up, then I have to buy more wood. Thank you Angel from The Bay new subber here.
Sorry to hear you're having problems, Angel! Hopefully the video will help you get straight cuts! I even upgraded to a track saw so that I could get even straighter cuts. It's worth a look, especially for the holidays. Look at the Kreg track saw! Or Makita.
@@ThriftDiving I'll continue to watch your videos. I was able to make a hay hopper with a liter box for our bunny, and it came out pretty good, Lady Cottontail loves it. Your tips helped me a lot. I never knew about the kerf and the 1/8 allowance for the blade. My cuts are better. I clamped down a square and it made my cuts straight. I am thinking of investing in a compound sliding 12-inch saw, then maybe I won't have to use the skill saw as much. Maybe the more I practice my cuts will get better with the skill saw. I love the way you teach, you are a natural teacher and I understand you. I have a lot of ideas, I just need more practice. I appreciate your videos. I am grateful. Angel from The Bay Area, CA USA
Great tutorial! I never understood why my cuts were a little off until you mentioned to cut outside of the line. Noone will hear me swear from now on! Thanks for the tip.
Nice video, Thank you. Many of the 2x4 boards that make up my backyard deck have rotted and need replacing. I bought Riyobi set of power tools for the task but never used a circular saw before and so had some 'concerns'. Your video makes this look look easy peazy.
Thank you!!! I’m buying all ryobi because of your tutorials! I’m laying floors so I had to get this saw. I was avoiding using the saw and leaving my areas where cut planks were supposed to go, blank! I realized i had to learn to cut the planks to do a descent job so to your tutorial I went! Thanks friend! Here I go!
Just bought my first circular saw. Ryobi 7-1/4". The instruction manual was good, but I learn better from seeing and hearing. I am so glad your tutorial came up first. This was so very informative, really like the safety instructions too! Keep it up. I also watched the jig saw and learned I can do more than I've been doing. Thank you!
My first ryobi was the drill driver and it’s addictive to use u made me go buy a jig saw lol looking to buy the table saw or this one lol ur addictive to watch and yes still cute lol
thanks for the info I want to start working when I want to not when I have to wait and wait for someone to come help me. I have been waiting for maybe 10 or more years for someone to help me repair a broken fence. I am tired of waiting. you have given me confidence to do this.
Loved this tutorial. Quick & straight to the point and very informative.Never used a saw in my life and didn’t just want to use it without knowing how it works and other videos only show how to cut and not adjust anything or really show the saw works. Thank you!
Really enjoying seeing another woman using power tools online. Love your energy and teaching skills. Please make more :) I'd also enjoy knowing if when using a specific tool you have encountered issues due to weight or stiffness that would be fine for a bulky guy who can use brute force but just is hard to work with for those of us who aren't. Any extra tips you are using to palliate would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
@ThriftDiving.
I am planning to buy your recommended circular corded saw Ryobi. Is there any suggestion on Saw table that won;t break the bank? seems like tables are much more costlier than the saw it self.
I'm a 48 year-old dude with a lot of life experience but new to power tools, and this was the most informative video I've found on circular saws for beginners like me.
I'm completely intimidated by power tools but started with a pneumatic hammer, and made an amazing closet. Start with a project you need, it will work out.
@@isabelamacavei1333 what the heck is a pneumatic hammer?

Same, I’m 40 year-old software engineer, but have never held an electrical saw before 😂
I just got my first circular saw yesterday to do some home projects and haven't used one before. Thanks alot for this video is very helpful and I'm eager to learn and apply the knowledge! 😁👍🏻
Great! I lost my husband a year+ ago and I'm learning to use the tools in the workshop. Love the tip to use rigid foam insulation as a stable base.
Sorry for ur loss
Sorry for your loss.
I was skeptical clicking on play to this video when seeing all the Ryobi tools, but I was wrong to be skeptical. You know your stuff!!! This video was very informative! Thank you for posting it!
Thank you, James!! Glad you found it helpful!!
I just got my first power saw and was afraid to use it and wound up using a hand saw. This is SUPER helpful. Going to use it!
I literally was just looking up a hand saw to buy before even attempting to open up my new round saw sitting on the table.. lol it is intimidating
Literally tried the handsaw and didn’t finish a single cut it was altogether too much. I think it’s time to put away the fear and just invest in the power saw.
thanks for explaining it so well, with clarity
This is such an awesome video! 🤙🏼 🔥

Bought my first circular saw and interesting to learn how to use it. Thanks from UK
I would love to have a playlist of just Power tools…Thankyou for helping me my husband usually does everything but now I’m getting SKILLS!!
Thank you! The instructions manuals are always a nightmare to read thru and every other video I've found doesn't really explain much and I was getting frustrated. This was great! 🙌
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing. Only you missed was changing the blade.
wow... amazing video for someone who's about to use this tool for the first time. Thanks
YAY! Glad you found it helpful! :)
Thank you. I purchased a combo kit and plan to use your videos to help me.
I am in the process of getting into wood working and I am looking at videos on how to use power tools thanks for sharing ❤️
I am learning before I buy the saw. It is very expencive here. Good video.
Excellent....serena.thx a million.I jus started work selling these tools n you hv made my day.
I'm a dude who's new to using power tools. Love your detailed explanations. Subscribed.
Thank you very much I just bought that saw tonight
I watched this video years ago in preparation for my first skill saw. I finally got the saw and had to come back for a refresher. 😊
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, You made this so easy to understand....
I made my first cut today. It was very satisfying.
Oh my gosh! I’ve had a small circular saw and haven’t been brave enough to try it. It came in a bundle. I’ve tackled the air strike, love it and jigsaw.

Hey! Yep--the sander video is coming!!
Great tutorial! I never understood why my cuts were a little off until you mentioned to cut outside of the line. Noone will hear me swear from now on! Thanks for the tip.
You are welcome! In carpentry, it's called "taking the line" and "saving the line." If you save the line, your cuts will be more accurate. :)
Dope I already watch your channel and searched for how to use this saw and there you were. Thanks so much for empowering people like me.
