WHOOPS! I had a little ‘accident’ while using my Sheet Goods Cutting Table.

When using the table, you place the sheet (plywood, OSB, etc) on the table and cut through the sheet with the circular saw blade set to slightly more than the thickness of the sheet.  This cuts through the sheet while only cutting shallow grooves in the cutting table.

Here’s what happens when you forget to tighten the depth adjustment on the circular saw!

Sheet Goods Cutting table, cut in half!

I was cutting some 3/4″ OSB sheets for the loft wood storage ‘wings’ and, after carefully setting the cutting depth to 7/8″, I forgot to tighten the depth control lock on the circular saw!

I was able to cut about 7 feet of the 8 foot long sheet when the table collapsed!  Fortunately the collapse occurred slowly and neither the sheet, the saw, or me were damaged.  The table is another story…
