mounting a circle saw to is is somehting that i hadnt considered.. but i also have a big cabinet table saw.. so i really dont think i would personally gain much from it..
im just sitting here trying to think up how im gonna get the angle or box tubing straight and then hold it there while i either weld it or bolt it down or whatever it ends up taking... i guess i could rig up something with a string so that i could pull it really tight, that might help me see any sag or twist...
i ahve noticed that some people are using pipe, and or things like EMT rather than spending all the big $$ on the ground rails.. i have to wonder about the longevity of each idea...
The only other idea that ive seen that i think might work would be to use the angle iron up on one side, have the rollers run along this edge, but bolt the angle to the top of the table frame, this would allow you to wallow out the holes a bit, and correct it for straightness by either moveing the rail in or out, or adding small shims under it to raise it a bit if you needed to...
