I'm so old I Remember when:

[R2elk]

For cutting across a board you should use a crosscut saw. Your drawing does not look like a crosscut or rip saw.

Crosscut

Rip

For shorter people, a saw like this will make your crosscuts easier.

 

[Evadig]

This is a crosscut saw then?

 

[R2elk]

This is a crosscut saw then?

Yes

 

[ChicksnMore]

I suppose if you slam the hammer down on your reproductive organ? That could cause reproductive harm. This is your sign.

O gosh... makes me remember Lorena Bobbit

 

[ChicksnMore]

I don't know if it is still done or not. I haven't seen them in years but every year at Easter the feed stores got all these colored chicks in for the kids as pets. If memory serves me correctly all I ever saw of them when the feathered out and matured were white leghorn roosters.

I remember those! Nope... illegal now.

 

[ChicksnMore]

I still do that! It takes about five minutes to saw a 2 x 4. Good muscle building…

I used too...but then I asked my kid to help me saw through a tree limb one day. Bless her, she came and knocked it out so quick...and the next day she showed up with a wonderful reciprocating saw and I fell in love

I remember that I had no crystal ball info about all the power saws that I have today.
Skill saw
Miter saw
Table saw

I do have my dad's old cross cut saw that he felled the trees with for lumber for a small pole barn. Since it has been enclosed and still stands. That was over 60 years ago. All done with out a single power tool.

I remember when car keys didn't have batteries.

Those little 'U' shaped tacks are the worst. Hold the wire with one hand, the nail with the second and swing the hammer with the third.

I've nailed so many fencing staples throughout the years making dome pens. Best I could do is nail the longer side in first straight like a nail. Then one good hit. Trying to nail both sides in at the same time made for sore fingers

I remember when car keys didn't have batteries.

On that note: one for the door and one for the ignition.
