Actually in 1974, when I was still barely a teenager I designed and built an apparatus much like the SawBuck, I had never seen a SawBuck up to that point. I was unaware of them until I was shopping for my first CMS, that was around the time that PC introduced the first laser miter saw. I was trying to make a table to guide my circular saw over the work to cut accurate 90's and miters much like a RAS.
