  2. Like that Idea . My plan is to build a work bench with a straight edge and hold down in one around 6 feet long . the idea is to make a special cut tool to run on the straight edge making that first cut on a back or side fast and perfectly straight. then the whole hold down straight edge can drop down out of the way. right angle cut lip sounds like something i will add also.
