Abstract:
1. An apparatus for supporting a molding article that is to be cut by a sawing device having a top cutting surface, the apparatus comprising: a bottom surface separate from the top cutting surface of the sawing device having opposing front and rear edges and opposing first and second side edges and dimensioned to be disposed upon the top cutting surface of the sawing device, wherein the front edge of the bottom supporting surface is formed with tapered portions extending from each opposing side edge and the front edge of the bottom supporting surface; a first wall upstanding from the rear edge of the bottom surface and extending between the opposing first and second side edges of the bottom surface, said first wall defining a first planar supporting surface upstanding substantially perpendicular from said bottom surface; a second wall upstanding from the bottom surface and at a location intermediate the first wall and the front edge of the bottom surface, the second wall extending between the opposing first and second side edges of the bottom surface and defining a second planar supporting surface upstanding substantially perpendicular from said bottom surface and facing said first planar surface in parallel relationship thereto; and an adjustment assembly operatively associated with the bottom surface and the second wall, the adjustment assembly permitting movement of the second wall between the first wall and the front edge of the bottom surface thereby creating a spaced distance between the first and second walls suitable to accommodate the molding article that is to be cut by a sawing device.
