Perfect cuts with circular saw - How?

Haha, check out this picture I took in my room:

I guess let the flaming begin for both of us! My printer is still covered in MDF dust and that was over a year ago... and I wonder why my allergies are getting worse haha.

I pay $530 (after utilities) at Northgate Lakes and it's not too bad because of the location. I save a lot of money not having to drive to campus and get to get out on my bike every day. The apartments aren't bad here either; I'm in a 1600ft^2 four bedroom four bath completely furnished with new carpet and faux-wood flooring. Not bad but there is no where I can work on audio stuff here. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Haha, that pic is priceless! I wish I would have snapped a few pics after I was done. Northgate is nice... $530 isn't that bad either. We were so close on getting a house that is right across the street from the stadium, physically the closest home to the stadium, but that fell through. The drive can definitely be a pain (thank god for online classes!); it usually takes somewhere between 9-14 minutes from driveway to parking spot.

Yea, my roommates thought it was funny too. Everything in my room was covered in MDF dust.

It takes me 5 minutes from out my door to the bike rack at ENG2 or HEC. I cut across McCulloch and pop out right behind the baseball field and ride past all the new dorms. It takes me less time to get to class on my bike than it takes people to drive (and yes, I've raced a couple of friends and they have all lost, especially if I'm really trying).

Should have had someone behind you with a vacuum

That's funny. Yea, I was really pissed when that deal didn't end up going through... must be nice to be right across the street.

Heres a nice feature:

Optional router base plate and circular saw plate lock onto T-track and provide perfect tracking along straight edge; HDPE construction.

Old News, these types straight edge clamping fixtures have been around for years.

Now here's a innovative straight edge and it doesn't require any clamps to hold it in position: http://www.mcfeelys.com/festool-guide-rails

Of course though you will have to pay a pretty good chunk of change for one.

BTW, before anyone say's anything about how well it works, it does, a woodworking store I go to all the time has it out on display/demo purposes and whatever the material is they use Non Slip Strips on the bottom just keep it in position.
