Abstract
A cutting tool for cutting building materials at a range of angles from vertical and/or horizontal and with an additional adjustment mechanism for adjusting the cutting angle up or down by a small angle. More specifically, this invention relates to a cutting tool including a base, a support surface, and a cutting platform, where the cutting platform can be set at a plurality of angles to the base including, but not limited to, angles of 22.5°, 30°, 45°, and 90°, and the support surface can be angled slightly up or down by a small amount, for example 1° or 2°, to slightly adjust an angle of the cut.
Claims15
A cutting tool comprising:
- a base;
- a cutting platform including an axle, the cutting platform pivotally connected to the base with the axle, wherein the cutting platform includes a blade holder with a linear blade, wherein the blade holder and the linear blade are movable between an open position and a cutting position, and wherein the cutting platform can be releasably locked at a plurality of angles to the base;
- a table surface pivotally connected to the cutting platform with the axle, wherein the table surface is releasably locked with respect to the base at a plurality of fine adjustment angles.
A cutting device comprising:
- a base;
- a cutting platform including an axle, the cutting platform pivotally connected to the base at the axle, wherein the cutting platform can be releasably locked at a plurality of angles to the base;
- wherein the cutting platform includes a blade holder with a blade, wherein the blade holder and the blade are movable between an open position and a cutting position,
- wherein a tip of the blade is aligned with a centerline of the axle;
- and
- a table surface pivotally connected to the cutting platform at the axle, wherein the table surface is releasably locked with respect to the base at a plurality of fine angles.
