Cutting it close!

Unlocked this run

Achievements

1. Watch the laser. The saw sweeps back and forth across the board. Its red laser shows where the blade will land.
2. Cut on the line. Press Space, tap the table, or hit Cut when the laser meets the pencil line. The V mark points to it.
3. Work the cut list. Many boards need more than one cut. The blade gets faster after each cut and every level.
4. Beat the clock. The bar under the board is your time for each cut. If it runs out, the board is scrapped. Faster cuts earn a bonus.
5. Mind the nails. Reclaimed barn oak has nails near the line. Cut through one and the board is scrapped.
6. Chase the golden line. Land 3 Perfects in a row and the next board's lines glow gold. Every cut on that board scores ×1.5, so the more accurate the cut, the bigger the payoff.
7. Save your boards. You have three. Scrap all three and the run ends. 8 clean boards in a row earns one back.
