Any of you folks have experience with handheld circular saws? Aside from the obvious danger factor, is it possible to build a guide so straight cuts can be made with one?

Andy, line up the edge of the blade with your mark so the blade won't cut away whatever you want to keep. Dale asked which is more versatile, a table saw or miter saw. I have never used a miter saw so I can't speak for those. It seems that one can't rip too easily with a miter saw so I would think that would be one limitation for a miter saw. So, in cross cutting, even though a miter saw may be more convenient, that is why I went with a portable table saw. Also, I don't have much space so I needed a saw that would store in a small space. earlier, Andy LaPointe, wrote: >Hi, I would like to purchase a table miter saw to cut various >things.
