The scrap piece of flooring will act as a guide to keep the blade even and parallel with the floor. That's how I cut my door jams and it worked great. @Allison, The Flush Cut saw is useful because of the ergonomic design to physically make the cut.

Sounds like a great tool, but I would still remove it and then reinstall. Great tips, but I have to say that cutting the door jam in place could be problematic in terms of getting the cut even.

It makes the installation look very professional and you can turn around and sell the saw on Ebay or Craigslist afterwards and recoup a good chunk of your investment! Ethan,
