I bought some insulation today to cover the table, and tomorrow I'll start cutting on that with my little CS. The big one scares me. I'll stick with the 4 3/8" blade. (I did once see Norm Abrams use a little one on one of his shows....so I feel vindicated).

Cynthia,
I'm sure your more than capable using any tool, but if this is the first time you've used a CS to cut sheet goods or anything for that matter, it is very easy and you can get very creative (even do arches).
Forgive me, I don't want to sound insulting with this suggestion, just offering some advice not knowing your familiarity with the tool. Remember on a CS, 1. don't let go of the saw if it binds/kicks back 2. Don't put your hand behind the saw (on what your cutting), in front is ok, not behind it 3. don't put your hand under the board you are cutting to support it (like if your cutting off thin strips - knew a guy that did this, darwin award right there for him)
Looks like your all set up! Have fun cutting and looking forward to pictures of the shelves!
