yeah thats what i was thinking. i mean, i have allow for extra length for the boards on the angled parts of the cp. so i will probably have to screw up to make sure im doing it right! my mom sometimes feels sorry for me when i dont have the tools to build something like this, so she might get it for me ::) she bought me a black and decker work bench thingy, for this project cuz she felt bad that i didnt have anything to put down the mdf on to cut it! so ill try to work my magic tonight and post the results tomorrow to see if shes down with buying me a table saw....or at least going half way ;D
question....what has two thumbs and is spoiled really bad???
answer....this guy right here ;D

if you can't figure out the angles then i'd buy a skill saw with adjustable base before a table saw and not a cordless one unless it's like 24 volt. as neat as they are they have no power and something as simple as cutting a 2 x 4 can be done faster manually. a skill saw, strait edge and 2 clamps can do everything a compound mitre saw can do and 98% of the things a table saw can do and they are about 1/4 the price. a skill saw is also alot less space consuming like a table saw and hey you can take a skill saw out on the drive way and work outside in the summer.
