Sliding Carriage Panel Saw

An easy way to break down sheets of plywood is on a panel saw. The trouble is, these saws can cost a thousand dollars or more, and most panel saws take up a lot of wall space. But this panel saw solves both of these problems. First of all, you’ll save a lot of money by building the saw yourself. And second, once the sheet of plywood is in place, it never moves. Instead, a sliding carriage guides the circular saw so you can make both rip and crosscuts accurately.
