Trust your muscles and strangely enough you get better control by trying to exert less. There are some aids – stuff to keep in mind in the act – that can help get yourself out of the way such as remembering to not put a death grip on the saw, let the saw do the work, use the whole blade and visualize moving it along an infinite straight line, etc. Cool posts!
