Step 3 of 4: Pick a Rip-cut Saw
Rip-cuts made simple: track saw for sheets, table saw for boards.
Learn More About Choosing a Rip-Cut Saw
Let’s start with what a rip-cut is.
Easiest way: is the cut going to be cut more than 12″ long? If so, it’s probably a rip cut and you’ll need a rip saw.
Bottom Line Up Front
- For most DIYers: A track saw is the best balance of safety, precision, and ease of use.
- For advanced or repetitive work: A table saw is still the go-to (and safest with SawStop).
- For pros only: A circular saw is low-cost and versatile, but requires skill and experience to use safely and accurately.
When it comes to making long, straight cuts, you’ve got three main options:
- Track Saw – The modern favorite. Easy to set up, precise, and increasingly popular for sheet goods like plywood or MDF.
- Table Saw – The traditional shop workhorse. Simple, versatile, and great for repetitive cuts, but requires careful safety practices.
- Circular Saw – A low-cost, portable option. Powerful, but challenging to set up for accurate cuts and best left to highly experienced DIYers.
⚡ Why track saws are becoming more popular
Track saws are portable, precise, and versatile. They let you bring the saw to the material instead of wrestling large sheets onto a stationary table saw. For many DIYers, a track saw can replace a table saw for most sheet-cutting tasks.
That said, a track saw isn’t a perfect substitute. Table saws still excel at repetitive cuts, thicker stock, and providing a stable work surface.
✅ Advantages of a Track Saw
- Portability – Lightweight and easy to transport; great for on-site work
- Precision – Guide rails ensure straight, accurate cuts
- Versatility – Handles plunge cuts, bevels, and long rips in sheet goods
⚠️ Limitations of a Track Saw
- Cutting Depth – Usually maxes out around 2–3 inches (vs. ~4 inches on a table saw)
- Repetitive Cuts – Slower for identical cuts compared to a table saw’s fence system
- Stability – Lacks the built-in work surface of a table saw for heavy or awkward materials
🔨 Best Uses for Each Tool
Track Saw
- Large sheet goods up to 8 ft (plywood, MDF, doors)
- On-site or mobile projects where portability matters
- Plunge cuts or interior cutouts
Table Saw
- Repetitive cuts where consistency is key
- Narrow boards (<12″)
- Thick stock (>2.5″)
- Heavy or awkward materials that need a stable work surface
Circular Saw
- Budget-friendly, general-purpose cutting
- Quick rough cuts when precision isn’t critical
- Best for experienced DIYers who are confident with setup and control
🛡️ A Note on SawStop® Table Saws
At Toolio, we also offer SawStop® table saws, which use advanced safety technology that can stop the blade in milliseconds if it contacts skin. This dramatically reduces the risk of serious injury. If you’re considering a table saw, we recommend choosing a SawStop whenever possible—it provides the same cutting power with an added layer of protection.

Step 4 of 4: Pick Finishing Add-ons

4-Steps of Interior Carpentry
⓵
Plan & Measure
Every great build starts with precision. Mis-measurements are the #1 cause of frustration—measure twice, cut once.
⓶
Cut & Shape
From straight cuts to tricky angles, accuracy matters. The right tools make this step smoother and safer.
⓷
Assemble & Secure
Joining pieces is where projects come to life—but also where alignment and stability can test your patience.
⓸
Finish & Refine
No project is complete without sanding, paint, or stain. Finishing is what transforms raw carpentry into polished craftsmanship.
Wondering if DIY carpentry is for you?
Hiring a contractor for even modest interior carpentry—like framing out a simple closet or installing new trim throughout a room—can quickly cost $3,000–$6,000+. Larger, more custom projects climb even higher.
With the right process—and the right tools—DIYers have tackled everything from basic closet builds to polished moulding upgrades, saving thousands while gaining the pride of craftsmanship.
That’s why we’ve fine‑tuned each Toolio carpentry bundle to give you exactly what you need for a pro‑grade result—without the pro price tag.
How does delivery & pickup work?
Rentals run from 9:00 a.m. on the first day to 5:00 p.m. on the final day. We deliver between 7:00–9:00 a.m. and pick up between 5:00–7:00 p.m.
How does Toolio compare to other rental centers?
Traditional rentals charge per tool, often without guidance or supporting gear. We bundle everything, support you every step, and deliver to your door.
You’re not just renting tools – you’re getting a solution.
Will I need to buy wood and other materials?
You’ll need to purchase paint and primer – essentials and comprehensive bundles include everything else you need.
Included in your Toolio bundle: glue, adhesives, wood filler. Caulking and other finishing products are part of the finishing phase. Check out the guides for those projects.
