<p>The second piece of advice is beat it into your head that your hands never go anywhere near the blade until you can count the teeth. And consider the space above the blade to be a 'no-fly zone'.</p>

<p>I don't see why you can't use an extra piece of stock the same thickness as your project stock, space it alongside or attach it to your project stock with double sided tape, thus creating a footprint wide enough to support your accu-cut, and safely make your cut.</p>

<p>I ended up purchasing a table saw, which led to purchasing a whole bunch of other stuff. The money is just flying out of my wallet! :-D</p>

<p>There are a few thing that come to mind, the first being safety, I own a track saw, but there isn't enough support with a 4x4 to keep the track stable, you could maybe put them side by side, you won't make that cut in one pass with a circular saw or table saw. My solution, although archaic, by a good hand saw, make your cut but leave the line, if you have a friend with a jointer you can clean the edge in no time or with a good hand plane. I think this is the safest and most economical way…</p>
