Abstract
An attachment to a rotary blade power saw (either hand-held or belt-driven) which allows said saw to be utilized in conjunction with any of the commonly available workbenches (such as that disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,615,087 and sold by The Black and Decker Manufacturing Company of Towson, Md., as the "WORKMATE" all-purpose Work Center and Vise), which workbenches consist of a pair of elongated vise members mounted on a supporting structure such that one or both of the elongated vise members are moveable relative to the other, to yield the equivalent, with attendant benefits, of a common table saw.
