I am about to buy a large oak sideboard which is fine apart from the height. I want to shorten the legs by 80mm. The cross section dimensions are a fairly substantial 90mm x 60mm.
As I have iffy shoulders I wonder if it is possible to achieve a good square cut with a power tool, eg a hand held circular saw with a 190mm blade/66mm maximum depth of cut. I have only used it for cutting sheet materials in the past so have no experience of it with thick hardwood.
