Hey ozman...

Dad needs to re timber his back varandah floor (open roofed). The dingbats before put the grooves towards the sky so the water soaks in and its all rotting. Just want the normal pine all weather stuff, bout 60 - 70mm wide i spose they are?

What are they a length and whats a rough figure.. Ill find out how many and exact lenght he would need..

not so storms i bought one of those jigsaws, but it wont cut strait gos off at all angles, dam silly thing.

You can use a jig saw with a straight edge as a guide. One other thing to consider is to not try and cut on the line just proud of it and then clean up to the line.

I only wholesale timber in pack lots and would need to know amount, secondly I personally would never use treated pine for decking as it,s shit but is cheap and that,s what sells it.
Watch better homes and garden on Friday and see the product we are really excited about and is a very durable timber and is a fire area approved . It's called DNA merbau and we are the first approved with a timber that can be chain of custody certified.I have a couple of top specials on at present on 66x19 Blackbutt std and better decking and 70x19 merbau screening which can be used as a decking.
Just tell me the m2 as it is sold by the lm in random lenghts we don't select lenghts that,s a timber yards job.

Poly you prolly used the metal cutting blade instead of a wood one Gotto use the correct bits for the job....I'v had the same prob with a ryobi years ago and couldn't work it out till my dad told me I was using the wrong blade!

Nope !

Jig saws aren't meant to do straight cuts & they will wonder all over the place.

Esp trying to cut material like Melamine board which I think Jack is refering to.

Even with a table saw unless you've got the correct blade & preferable with a 2nd scribe blade you'll chip away @ the Melamine coating resulting in a shitty cut.

You can go to the top of the class JG. There is a tool for every job isn't there. The 2nd scribe is the only way re a table saw V's malomine

Circular saw and a straight edge will get you there in no time...

I also owned a joinery shop Bees

There is a another cheeky way to avoid the chiping, cut the sheet a few mm's bigger then trim it back with a router

[jack]

no, I just need plywood (21mm), nothing coated (I might paint it, but most likely not).

The reason why I want it cut is that it usually cost next to nothing to have it cut.

I would need to go out and buy me a couple of saw horses for those big sheets.
I have a circular saw that would cut it but I just don't have the facilities to cut these big sheets.

Anyway I'll think about the exact measurements I need and have already PM'ed Oz man that I'll give him the sizes and he'll get a price for me.

Thanks

Jack
