I am working on updating our walking in closet, and have a need for cutting full sheet of plywood into the size of the cabinets. The traditional way to break down plywood is to clamp down a straight guide and cut with circular saw. That will work fine with just one sheet, but my plan is to cut 6 full sheets into 14.5" x 8' strips,

Start with the right blade. Replace the 24-tooth blade that came with the saw with a 50- to 60-tooth blade for cleaner crosscuts in solid wood, veneered plywood, and other sheet goods. For general use when cut quality isn't critical, use a 40-tooth blade. If you're ripping solid wood, switch back to the 24-tooth blade.
After a simple one-time calibration, you can lock in your cut width (up to 24") using the measuring scale and precision cursor. Then, just hold the edge guide against the edge of your sheet as you guide the saw. You'll get straight, accurate, repeatable cuts easily every time.
Rip guides like this one can be found on YouTube and in other Instructables here. They are very handy for precise ripping of large panels and for trimming things
