Problem is that the GOOD crosscut saw that I own cost me more than either of my circular saws did ... and I would not use it for general cutting. I would totally either rent proper tools or pick them up from a pawn shop. --- End quote --- Really? Maybe through wood but MDF would just ruin the tool real fast I think. I'd rent too - pawn shop is another excellent idea. |

you can get a decent jigsaw for pretty cheap too |

Be patient or you will be cutting at a gradual angle. Get something you can line up your saw with and keep you cutting straight. |

Can it be done with a handsaw..... sure. |
