I have been sawing 2X4s like crazy practicing and getting my technique right. I am a lot better. I changed the placement of my thumb and quit trying to go so fast. This has stopped my saw from slicing to the right. Plus I watched Paul’s videos again and took the advise from everybody who responded.
I was using a Disston #5 rip saw. I tried my Disston #10 rip saw and noticed that my technique is all wrong. Thank y’all for answering me. I am in for a lot of practicing. I have to get used to what Paul says and that is to slow down. With power tools there is not a lot of technique involved. That’s the reason in learning traditional ways.
I’m asking about cutting straight. I did the knife wall and my saw stayed straight about 2″ in and then strayed right. I couldn’t correct it so I kept sawing just to see how bad it was going to be. I’m practicing the sawing on some glued up 2X4 pine framing lumber for a bench top.
