Abstract
A compound miter box is provided wherein the saw guides are pivotable about a vertical and a horizontal axis. Each saw guide includes a retaining mount having a concave bearing surface defining a locating tab thereon. A saw supporting arm is pivotally mounted to the underside of the saw bench. The arm includes a plurality of tab receiving depressions therein. Each tab receiving depression corresponds to a predetermined angle between the saw guides and the saw bench. A user may then select and secure the locating tab in a tab receiving depression corresponding to the desired predetermined angle between the saw guides and the work supporting surface of the bench.
