Hello fellow woodworkers


Im making a fence with 4x4 posts. Is it possible to saw them using a
handsaw with almost or perfect result?


What kind of handsaw do I need?


Yours Sincerely
Tom


Keep in mind that you don't want to cut them square, unless you have some
kind of cap going on the top ends. Cut them at about a 15 degree angle from
all four sides, leaving a pyramid top that will shed water. Makes the
concept of a perfect cut a little less important too.

Ah, thank you very much. An amateur as me would have not thought about
that. In another group I have been told to use a japanese saw. Think I
am going to try with that.
