  • Publication number: 20080034934
    Abstract: Improvements in a cut-off miter saw for floor, wall, crown molding, wood, plastic, metal and the like are disclosed that includes an automated or manually fed cut-off saw where measurements are dynamically entered into a wireless communications device. The measurements are organized and sent to a cut-off saw where the material is cut with a first angle, indexed and cut at a second angle. The parts are further marked or organized and routed to the installer. This offers a tremendous improvement and reduction in the amount of time presently required to perform these operations in a serial order. It is particularly useful in measuring, cutting and nailing floor molding in houses, or other buildings where each room has slightly different dimensions and each length is custom fit.
