Abstract

A guide for use with a portable power saw has a cutting tool which revolves about an arbor in order to cut a surface. A set of wheels is coupled to the power saw. The set of wheels is arranged substantially on a line extending through the arbor. The line is perpendicular to the surface during a cutting operation. This allows for easy radius cuts to be made by the power saw without straining either the saw blade or the operator.
