Method and apparatus for stabilizing a workpiece

A method for supporting a molding article that is to be cut by a sawing device, the method comprising the steps of:

• providing a supporting apparatus including:
• a bottom supporting surface having opposing front and rear edges and opposing first and second side edges;
• a first wall upstanding from the rear edge of the bottom supporting surface and substantially extending between the opposing first and second side edges of the bottom supporting surface;
• a second wall upstanding from the bottom surface and at a location intermediate the first wall and the front edge of the bottom supporting surface, the second wall extending between the opposing first and second side edges of the bottom supporting surface;
• and
• an adjustment assembly operatively associated with the bottom supporting surface and the second wall, the adjustment assembly being operable to cause lateral translation of the second wall between the first wall and the front edge of the bottom supporting surface thereby creating a spaced distance between the first and second walls suitable to accommodate the molding article that is to be cut by a sawing device;
• disposing said molding article between a spaced provided between the first and second walls;
• fixedly securing the second wall to the bottom supporting surface, via the adjustment assembly, such that the molding article is angular disposed between the first and second walls in substantially an angle as the molding article is desired to be disposed on a users wall;
• having a portion of the molding article extending beyond one of the first or second edges of the bottom supporting surface that is desired to be cut.
