ABSTRACT:
A saw highly accurate, light weight guide assembly releasably attached to a portable power saw to provide the accuracy of a table saw while retaining the convenience of a portable saw. The saw includes a bidirectionally telescoping slide assembly having an outer track which attaches on one side to saw receiving base plate and an inner track which attaches on the other side to a guide arm and compass assembly. For ease of carrying the guide arm may be retracted while retaining a predetermined compass angle setting and the tracks may be secured together by a quick release latch. A set of ball bearings engages planar surfaces on the tracks to form a point contact which minimizes clogging while affording a smooth and easy yet stable sliding action for the two tracks.
