Abstract
A portable saw table having an elevated, adjustable track for accommodating various cutting tools such as sabre saws, circular saws and routers, a guide mounted beneath the conventional saw table slot for guiding a cantilevered type blade, such as a sabre saw, during the reciprocatory movement thereof, an adjustable guide member connected to the arm of a protractor mounted on the table, and a pressure block adjustably mounted on the table for biasing the workpiece against the protractor guide member during the cutting operation.
Claims6
A saw table comprising, a table, a saw blade slot provided in said table, saw blade guide means mounted beneath said table in alignment with said saw blade slot, said saw blade guide means comprising a pair of spaced, parallel longitudinally extending flanged members connected beneath said table, the space between said longitudinally extending flanged members being aligned with the saw table slot, a plate slidably mounted on said flanged members, said plate being operatively connected to the blade of a cutting tool during the cutting of a workpiece on the table to thereby guide and prevent twisting of the blade during the cutting operation.
A saw table comprising, a table, a saw blade slot provided in said table, a transversely extending scaled block mounted on each end of said table, a pair of spaced, parallel, longitudinally extending angle irons extending between said scaled blocks and mounted thereon, said angle irons being elevated above said table and said saw blade slot to thereby form a track for supporting a cutting tool with a saw blade for cutting a workpiece disposed beneath the track and supported on the table, a transversely extending slot provided in each block aligned with a corresponding transversely extending slot in the saw table, nut and bolt assemblies extending vertically through said transverse slots and horizontally disposed flanges of each of said angle irons, whereby the space between the longitudinally extending angle irons can be varied by individual selected lateral adjustment of each of said angle irons, a linear dimension scale mounted on the upper surface of each of said blocks to facilitate the lateral adjustment of the angle irons relative to the saw blade slot for accommodating a selected cutting tool, a pair of spaced, parallel, longitudinally extending saw blade guide members mounted beneath said table, the space between said saw blade guide members being aligned with the saw blade slot and being slightly greater than the thickness of the saw blade, and said saw blade guide members cooperating with the saw blade to prevent twisting of the saw blade during the cutting operation.
