A straight edge guide system is presented that makes clamping of a workpiece faster and easier. The straight edge guide system includes a guide member that extends a length from a first end to a second end. A clamp member is connected to the first end of the guide member and includes a compressible bias member therein. An adjustable stop member is connected to the guide member that moves between a locked position and a free position. When the adjustable stop member is in the free position, the adjustable stop member slides along the length of the guide member. When the straight edge guide system is placed on top of a workpiece, the workpiece is clamped under spring bias force between the clamp member and the stop member.

A portable cross cut system is presented that includes a main body having a reference edge configured to be aligned against an edge of a workpiece and an engagement member configured to be laid on top of the workpiece. A first guide edge extends along an outward edge of the main body and the engagement member and is configured to guide an edge of a baseplate of a cutting tool during a cutting operation. The main body includes a blade offset member having an arm that moves between an extended position and a retracted position. When the arm is extended the outward end of the arm indicates the position of a cut line so that the user can easily align the position of the portable cross cut system to easily and accurately make cuts in a workpiece.

An adaptive cutting system is presented that facilitates cutting workpieces in new and different ways in a fun, easy, fast, accurate and safe manner. The system includes a benchtop having a grid of bench dog holes across its surface as well as a pair of table tracks embedded within its surface. An edge track extends around the benchtop and a pair of hinge members are connected to the edge tracks that also connect to a saw track that is movable between a raised and lowered position. The system also includes narrow rip stops, wide rip stops, bench dogs and a miter gauge all of which work in concert with the on-table features to facilitate on-table measurement and alignment of workpieces for performing cutting operations.
