Can this tool cut wood veneer in a straight line against a straight edge?

doubt it can cut it at all! More for fabric, cardboard, leather etc. Blade is similar to serrated not a saw type blade. try plywood blade on skill saw or a router or a band saw

Straight cuts certainly. Limited to a 4" depth of cut, but still if only partially through the existing, a quick blow with hammer and chisel should easily complete the cut. The saw performed flawlessly for my project and an incredible price as well. The blade alone is $80 at Home depot.

I doubt that one would be able to cut a block of wood into the shape of a blade because the saw is designed mainly for straight cut w/ coarse teeth.

Yes, Or slightly better would be hire a concrete saw and run it against a length of wood for a straighter line

No. A jigsaw is typically used for rounded and scroll type cutting. Freehand or with a guide. It's not designed for straight cuts that need a lot of accuracy.

The die is scalloped; so, no, you can't cut straight edges. I have been using this in my Cuttlebug.....just bought a Big Shot; so, the BS will be absolutely fine. Hope this helps!

Yes. I have gotten a straight line every time. I'm a stampin up demonstrator. I can cut 15 sheets of cardstock and have every one the correct size. Best trimmer ever!

That would take too long in oak. The tool moves slow through hardwood. You want a jigsaw.

Yes and no, not if you want a really straight line. I recommend a utility blade.

I have used this in plywood and it worked great. I believe it can be attached to a straight edge or a circle attachment. I think amazon has one.

Unfortunately, you will not get a smooth cut. It will do a goo job with the half circle saw. You can cut a straight line with a metal straight edge clamped down and running the half circle saw along side. Your speed is important because it will burn the wood if too fast or start smoking from the hot wood. J.D.

makes perfectly straight lines to split plywood. Really only purpose is to cut the plywood into smaller more manageable pieces. Don't expect to be making circles or triangles.

yes, i have used it to cut hardwood flooring when installing a floor level threshold to an exising floor. You do have to use a guide for a perfectly straight cut

Hmmm. Sure, if you have the right tools! It is not one flat surface; it has a "lip" which is great for hanging but probably not great for cutting.

Yes, if you're careful and patient. I used this saw to put together a model train table for my kids and did quite a few flush cuts in the process. I have sliced things as thin as 1/8" using this saw.

only if you have a very steady hand and you can keep the blade straight. it would be better to use it for rough work, i believe. my son, the carpenter, would find some other way for precision work.

The saw is built to make cuts of many angles on wood such cas 2X4's. It will not rip a 2X4. So if by,"Straight " you mean an accurate cross cut,the answer is yes .
