Default Miter saw Stand

Put some of those new tools to use, and get some sawdust on your

Yes, it's good for the soul! : )

The main thing that is making me pause (and ponder) is the "fine
tuning": How to get the sides precisely the same as the height of the
saw.

I just got this idea:
How about securing the saw to a square plywood base (4 bolts), then
using about 12 more bolts to secure that base say 1" above another
plywood base, using 3 nuts to accomplish this for the latter 12 (one at
the bottom securing the bolt to the lower base, and one above and below
the top base).

That ought to save about $200, I mean support the saw, ya think?! Let me
know if "the picture" is not clear.
