Forget the famous hot dog video. In this one, SawStop inventor Steve Gass demonstrates how the saw works with his own finger. You may want to watch this one twice.

   Watch the video.

Cutting curves and holes in fiber cement

cutting fiber cementA circular saw is the tool of choice for making straight cuts in fiber-cement siding. But what do you use to make cuts with curves? Watch Mike Guertin demonstrate how he uses a carbide scribe, a hole saw, a jigsaw, and nibblers to make curved and round cuts in fiber cement.

   Watch the video.

New and noteworthy tools (and one fun game)

The Inspector game1. Find out what our Tool Hound means when he says &#34Ridgid's new fiber cement saw sucks.&quot

2. RCT's weatherstripping channel tool looks like a finish nailer, but performs like a router. And since now is the time to think about weatherstripping your doors (not when it's cold out), you'll want to check it out.

3. And, take a look at the newest tools aimed specifically at professional HVAC and electrical contractors.

Finally, we've just created a new version of our Inspector game. If you tested your framing knowledge the first time around, you'll want to go back for round two. Good luck!

   Play the game.
