I hate cutting sheets of plywood. I get tired of clamping a straight edge to the sheets and then rigging something to catch the cutoffs.  I know I'm not alone or there wouldn't be a market for verticle panel saws or sliding table attachments. My shop is too small for a big sliding table and I don't cut plywood that often to justify it. 

I looked at the various commercially available panel saws and thought the $$$ was too much for my blood.  So... I decided to make a panel saw.  After searching the web for a while, I decided the plans and kit offered by Rockler was the best.

This project turned out to be a lot more difficult than I expected.  I ended up making bunch of legs and 3 frames for the glass.  Read more to find out why!
