Abstract

Relates to a combination carpenter's portable power operated hand saw and table saw in which the hand carrying case forming the table of the combination approximates in size that of travel suitcases and similar forms of luggage. The case is provided interiorly with guides for receiving and removably suspending a power driven hand saw in inverted or upside down relationship to the normal usage of the portable saw such that the blade of the saw is projectionable through a slot in the top of the case for cutting purposes. Means is provided inside the case for withdrawing the blade from the slot through which it projects when not in use and for tilting the blade to selection positions for making inclined cuts. Means is provided externally of the case for guiding the work product being cut, the guiding member for this purpose being slidably movable varying distances from the plane of the blade. Means is also provided for knock down packaging of the parts of the case for shipping purposes.
