  • Patent number: 4068550
    Abstract: A foldable bench for converting a normally hand-held electrically powered circular saw into a table saw, wherein the bench is easily portable when folded and highly stable when in use. In particular, the bench employs four foldable leg members having floor engaging extremities movable from a first position wherein the leg members are contained entirely within the bench housing to a second position wherein the floor engaging extremities are positioned laterally beyond the lateral extremities of the upper surface of the bench to thereby provide a compact, portable unit when the leg members are folded and an extremely stable bench when the leg members are extended. Simplicity in design is achieved by extrusion forming the upper surface from a single unitary member having means for slidingly mounting the portable hand-held circular saw and containing side grooves for receiving auxiliary attachment fasteners.
