    Hi guys. just thought I’d ask in case I’ve missed something. Has anyone found anything that cuts RVP planks without destroying blades, especially for rip cuts ?

    Thanks in advance.

    It's ok ,just realised i assume rigid vinyl plank. You can use a jigsaw, plunge saw or even a table saw for rip cuts

    I’ve been using a jigsaw, but it does destroy blades in just a couple of boards. Just wondered what others used.

    I mostly use a knife, only usually use jigsaw for cutting out corners and thin rip cuts

    Hi Paul
    Thank you I’ll certainly give the metal blades a go. See if they last more than a few boards.
