When I saw Chris's question I kinda chuckled because when the group
project was done, it was re-creating the saw till I had already built
about a year before. I am not making any claim as to originality here --
in fact, I have no idea where the idea for the design came from. I'm
jus' sayin' that I believe it is such an obvious solution for a shop
environment (not to argue the merits of a tool box saw till, if ya know
what I mean) that I doubt it is patentable.
