When you reach the end of the board, lift the saw up. Alternately, you could use a Jigsaw to cut circles. Draw your circle on the wood, then drill a hole at its center. You can then cut around the hole using your jigsaw to complete your circle. No matter what method you use, it is important to take safety precautions while cutting circles.
Different Types Of Circular Saws
There are many types of circular saws, each made to cut specific materials more easily. The traditional corded circularsaws have a power cable and plug into an outlet. There are also cordless circular saws that can be used directly without the need for an extension or cord.
How To Cut The Circle:
You will need to locate the middle of the board, and mark it. Next, grab a piece or thin rope of string and tie it with one finger. Keep the loop’s bottom at the mark in the middle.
The loop should not be too large as this will impact how accurate your circle is drawn on the board. Next, draw a circle on the board using a pencil. Next, place your saw blade on the outer edge of the board and turn it with light pressure.

Precautions:
When using any saw, be careful. Before you start your project, make sure that the saw blade is in tip-top condition. Be aware of your surroundings, and ensure there is enough space to work. At all times, keep fingers and other body parts away from the blade. Never force the saw into cutting material it is not intended to.
Conclusions:
You have two options: use a compass, or draw your circle with string and pencil. Next, find the center of your circle and mark it. Then, place the saw blade against the edge of your board at the mark. Next, slowly rotate the saw around this circle with pressure. If you are using circular saws, lift the blade up once the board is at the end.
You can also drill holes at the desired spot for the jigsaw and then work your way around to create the final product using jigsaws. Always be careful when using power tools. Never force materials that are not intended to be cut with them.
