Abstract
Precision cutting of cove molding in all commercial sizes and designs is obtained by an apparatus which includes a flat bed plate having a straight saw blade slot formed therethrough and a power saw guideway along the slot. A rest for cove molding extending away from one side of the saw blade slot at an angle of 45 degrees thereto includes opposite side flat surfaces which rise from the top of the bed plate at angles of 45 degrees to the bed plate, the rest having a flat bottom surface to engage the bed plate. As an attachment to existing saw table equipment, the cove molding rest may have a bottom recess including an end stop surface to fit over a protractor guide of the existing equipment. All customary angle cuts of the cove molding are greatly facilitated.
Claims10
An apparatus for cutting cove molding comprising a flat bed plate having at least one straight edge for the guidance of a saw blade, a cove molding rest on the bed plate disposed at an angle of 45 degrees to said straight edge and extending away from said edge in one direction, and said rest having a pair of flat parallel inclined upwardly converging side surfaces rising at angles of 45 degrees to the top face of the bed plate and extending for the entire length of said rest.
An attachment for a sawing table apparatus having saw guideway means and a protractor arm adapted to be locked at a 45 degree angle to the guideway means, the apparatus including a table member having a flat surface, said attachment comprising a cove molding rest having a flat bottom face to engage the flat surface of the table member and opposite side parallel upwardly converging flat surfaces rising at angles of 45 degrees from said flat bottom face, and said rest having a bottom recess adapted to fit over and receive therein said protractor arm whereby the arm will precisely position the rest on the table member in 45 degree angular relationship to said saw guideway means.
