The Bateau people don't recommend it as they think it is harder to keep a long, straight line with it, but that wasn't the primary reason I decided against it. The thing about using a jigsaw is that the plywood would have to be up off of the floor, and I think the 1/4" thick plywood isn't rigid enough to sit flat on sawhorses.<BR/><BR/>That said, now that I think about it, it seems that I could make the long cuts with the circular saw, then use the jigsaw to do the tighter radius turns at the bow and stern. That actually makes a lot of sense, so thanks for the suggestion!DaveGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16015349658680998609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14001215.post-24956513811021346932008-01-20T17:51:00.000-05:002008-01-20T17:51:00.000-05:00hey what happened to the "n" from my name-it was t...hey what happened to the "n" from my name-it was there in the preview. oh wellLeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02288771971363819090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14001215.post-87107063616543738882008-01-20T17:49:00.000-05:002008-01-20T17:49:00.000-05:00hey i think it is time for a new tool. what you n...hey i think it is time for a new tool. what you need is a jig saw. with that you will be able to make all your curvy cuts. naturally long smooth cuts will be harder to keep smooth but i think you are up to it.<BR/>the other one of the 2 readers your referenced a couple weeks ago--leoLeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02288771971363819090noreply@blogger.com
