Abstract

A saw support member for supporting a portable power circular saw is pivotably mounted to a platform defining a workpiece support surface. A pair of fences are pivotally connected on a fixed vertical axis to the platform. First and second arcuate guide slots are defined within the platform in arcs concentric about the fence pivot vertical axis. Each fence has spaced apart first and second guide members projecting therefrom into the first and second associated guide slots, respectively, for guiding the movement of the associated fence at spaced locations along its length. Means are provided for releasably restraining each fence from pivotable movement relative to the platform.
