Abstract: The present invention involves an elongated frame assembly to permit the securing and proper angular cutting to length of a plurality of balusters which are utilized to support a handrail. The frame assembly comprises a pair of spaced-apart parallel side rails connected to a first and a second end rail and a separate support base arranged under each end rail to provide support the respective ends of balusters in the frame assembly. An adjustable slide member is arranged to permit the length of a plurality of balusters to be fixedly set according to a desired length to eliminate inaccuracies in cutting thereof.

Abstract: The present invention involves an air empowered circular saw apparatus for the cutting of material by either a left handed or a right handed operator. The apparatus includes an elongated base plate with a support frame extending from one side thereof; and an output housing supported on the distal end of the support frame, with an elongated drive motor housing supported on one side of the support frame. A saw blade is supported on the opposed side of the support frame, wherein the drive motor housing is swingable about an axis of rotation of an output shaft through the output housing to permit handed control of the air powered saw apparatus to be changed.
