cutting parque wood flooring

[foreverain4]

any ideas on how to cut this stuff? i have an angle that needs to be cut in a few. the problem i have is the whole thing just falling apart as i cut it. i have attached a detail for those that dont know what i am talking about. this is one section of the floor. 12"x 12"

Duct tape the bottom side around the edges, across the center, and around where you plan to cut.

Then, to get the gummy shit from the duct tape off your saw blade afterward, use either WD-40 or Liquid Wrench and either a brush or maybe just a paper towel - wipe dry afterward, and no more gummy... :=)

Just dont forget to unplug it first!

Sorry I could'nt resist

Nah, ya just hold the WD-40 soaked towel against the blade while it's running, it's faster that way -

Oh, wait, WD-40 is VERY flammable, plus friction from high speed blade, plus fingers close to fast-moving teeth - sounds like a winning entry for World's Funniest Videos to me.

Tell ya what - I'll hold the cam-corder for ya, OK? Got a telephoto lens? I wouldn't wanna get my new leather coat singed... :=)
