Thank you, Sonny. As of this morning I AM leaning towards a stand
which will give me "repeatable cuts"--at least in the long term. In
the short term, I can surely do fine with another configuration.

This distinction, was a useful concept, at least for me, that came
out of this thread.


Anything can give you repeatable cuts Bill. It just has to be secure, and
able to support the length of stock you are working with. That's where
outboard supports become your friend. Repeatablity is mostly in the hands
of the user, and maybe a stop block thrown in for good measure. Even a saw
mounted on a pair of sawhorses can promise you repeatability.
