This is just a simple trick. When you want to cut close to a perpendicular surface with a sawzall just turn the blade around. The longer the blade you use the flatter the cut and the easier it is to cut without going through the perpendicular surface. I am always amazed when I see experience carpenters making these cuts with the blade the right way around....you can get into almost zero clearance by just turning the blade around.
