In Response To: ripping strips (Paul G. Jacobson--Floating Boat, Inc.)

Thanks for the advice, some of which I had planned on already, but also some new ideas. My intention was not to mount the saw to the table, but to move the saw over the boards on the table to cut the strips, using the fence to guide the circular saw as I move along the boards. I believe I would need to come up with some type of clamping system to hold the boards firmly to the fence to keep a uniform thickness, especially once the boards get more narrow as more strips are removed. The table idea evolved after I tried to imagine trying to cut 1/4 in. off of a peice only 2 in. wide with the fence on the circular saw. I also intend to use the table to support my telescoping tube strong back I bought off ebay with some left over strips from someone elses project.
