Thats what i use, and it works great.

Add in the 3, 4, 5 rule and I'm pretty good at keeping things strait and square

Are you sure you have a good blade on the circular saw... In some cases a dulling blade can make the saw drift.

if you cant freehand a circular saw use a guide like ryan said.....

Okay this may sound like I'm being rude, but that is not the intention...
But if you can't cut a straight line with a table or circular saw... what are you going to do when it comes to cutting the holes? Most of my circle cut outs are drawn and then freehanded with a jig saw, and lots of others here use a circle guide with a router... so what's your plan of attack there?
Like I said, didn't mean to sound rude, but I thought you may want to think ahead. :)

if you draw a line to follow with the circular saw they have a little cutout to the side of the blade to let you follow the line easily

Little to much pissy in your tone son.

looks to me like you need practice obviously you have the tools and you already know what your doing sooo practice? seems like everyone gave you ideas and you don't like any. is this a venting post or a help me post?

y in the hell does it take you 20 mins to setup a fence a tape measure and about 20 seconds and its done. how are you setting it up?

Hey been nice, hell glenn couldn't cut strait with my old circular saw.

Probably cause the shaft was moving in and out of the motor, but I still blame him.
