a frame supporting the saw;
a table having a planar surface configured to support the tile, the table being slidable relative to the frame; and
a rear fence secured to the table; and

(b) adjusting the rear fence from an operating position to a bypassed position by moving an engagement surface of the rear fence to a position substantially even with the planar surface of the table to allow the tile to extend beyond a rear edge of the table, wherein the rear fence slides between the operating position and the bypassed position, and wherein the engagement surface of the rear fence, when in both the operating position and the bypassed position, is perpendicular to the planar surface of the table.
