I'm going to be doing a little bit of decking :( . I think I have most tools I need. However one element of this scheme will require creating an incline. I will need to drop from 210mm to level over 3m (apprx 1 in 14).
So I will need to cut the joists with the appropriate angle. Which I don't have the tool for. I have a circular saw, and a jigsaw. But no easy way to create a totally straight cut - certainly not over 3m !
I believe I need a bench saw, which should come with some sort of guide so I can feed the timber in at the right angle, and just push it through the saw ? Or is there a better tool ?
Or, given my woodworking skills are rudimentary, would it be a better idea to outsource this part of the project and look for someone local who I could get to cut the marked wood ?
If the latter, where would I look, and what would be a fair price for something which should take 10 minutes (if that).
If the former, does anyone have any suggestions. I'm prepared to accept this may be the only job it gets used for, if it's functional but not particularly rugged.
