One thing you *must* make first if you are building from sheet is a
sawboard, or even better a pair of them, 4 foot and 8 foot. I made mine
from 9mm plywood. These save an unbelievable amount of time because you
can cut everything straight to size with accuracy better than 1mm. Next
to no post-cut fettling.

+1. I've got a 1m aluminium clamping sawboard from Aldi, and use it a lot
with
a circular saw. A straight edge clamped does me for longer lengths.

Hi Rob,

Haven't see those before but look very handy. The track saw I have is one of
these

The table thing which allows you to attach a normal circular saw/ router to
and make it like a table saw is one of these


That pic seems to have gone - but the saw/track idea looks to be a better
solution all round.
