You can cut angles pretty well with a skill saw...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

what do you people use to cut mdf? i need something that can cut alot of angles my jig only cuts 15, 30, and 45 degree angles

Get a good circular saw. Not as efficient as a quality table saw, but much cheaper and can make as good of quality cuts if you know what you're doing. As far as angles, I think 15, 30, and 45 is the norm for most saws out there.

the few times i have tried cutting angles with a jig saw was trimming some edges at a 15 degree angle and they just came out all wavey an crap and its pretty hard when your doin it by yourself

practice, practice, practice.... FG is a great skill and is worth the effort and education you get from the experience.... I dont see it as a failure if you at least tried, keep going, read up on it, watch dvd's about fiberglassing, ask questions.

I cant wait to do my own... one consitent thing I hear is how frustrating it is but the results are amazing.
