Description: I have done many projects and see a lot of future projects around the house where I have thought it would be nice to have a portable miter saw. I have finally given it to temptation and purchased a portable miter saw. I decided I needed some kind of stand to support this new miter saw and the work pieces I am cutting with it. I came up with a beam design for the stand. In this design, there is a single 2x8 beam that is held on sawhorses or whatever stable surface is available. On that beam, I can place supports for the saw and supports for the work pieces. The supports are made by sandwiching 2x4s around the beam with a spacer that is the thickness of the beam. This seems to work really well as I can move this supports very easily to wherever they are needed. I have been building a wood storage shed behind the wood shop and the miter saw has been very useful.
