Sharing buttons:
hey there I'm working on this project
here in the house and I'm using
quarter-inch plywood and so I've got to
cut different things different lengths
to make it match to my wall but I don't
want to go to my saw every time so I
found a really simple easy trick this is
a quick tip on how to do it all you need
is a metal straightedge utility knife
with a really sharp blade and a pencil
let me show you what I'm doing alright I
already measured where I want my cut to
be for the sake of the camera I'm gonna
make a line with my pencil so that you
can see it better although I don't do
this typically there's my life so take a
straight edge against the piece of wood
take your razor blade and slightly angle
it in towards your straight edge and
pull lightly just a score line then do
one more time a little heavier take it
away
go back in that line one two three four
times so standing up land use your
pencil make a mark around to the back
and I'm doing this instead of measuring
just because you want to make sure your
cuts line up perfectly this is a better
way to ensure that they do it's once
again my knees up to my mark angling the
blade do a light pass a second one Oh
heavier pull it away three more one two
three and actually a fourth and watch
what happens you pick up the other end
it to snap it there we go perfectly
clean edge every single time
