Do you need to cut some wood but don't have access to a table saw? Like many people you will probably be using a skill saw or jig saw to cut your line, but you want it to be straight right? This link is a handy guide on How To Cut A Straight Line Using A Skill Saw Or Jig Saw and will take you step by step through the motions of being able to cut yourself a straight line in the wood you are using.

It would be great for a project where you are cutting wood that is longer, like strips of plywood or just cutting it to size and having to make longer lengthways cuts. You basically just line up your saw to the guide board and away you go!
