Lay the baseboard down on the table. Make sure the part you are going to cut is hanging off of the table.

Firmly hold down the baseboard. Steadily begin to saw the baseboard in a back and forth motion where you drew the line.

Handling a saw can be very dangerous due to its sharp edges. Make sure to be cautious of the motion of the blade and to cut away from your fingers/body.

Ensuring the baseboard is hanging off the table will help prevent your table from being cut or damaged.

Using a back and forth motion is safer to do when using a saw to cut a baseboard. This method will also give you a clean cut.
