Cutting with a two-hand saw

It is difficult for one person to cut with a two-handed wood saw, due to the slackness of this tool. Parting will be more effective, when the saw is stiffened by sliding a narrow board with cutouts over the handles. Using the cutouts, slide the board over both grips at the ends of the saw blade. When the saw blade enters the cut trunk to half its width, the board stiffener must be removed from the saw.
