I cut mine right on the ground with a circular saw and some 2x4s under the mdf. I use a 5ft t-square to draw out the lines. If you are using screws it doesnt have to be that perfect. What happens when you nick the angle iron?

for me i just use some like milk crates on the ground. works great and the table stacks in a corner
my dad bought TONS of like flower crates a few years ago and ive been using them since ive choped thru a few of them from time to time.LOL
as for straight cuts just try my best to cut the line straight. tho a simple 2x4 and some clamps then just run the saw down against it for a true straight line if it realy matters to ya.

^^^ 'cept at my local HD they have a sign that says "sorry, no precision cuts"...ive had HD cut some of my stuff in the past and as much as i love the panel saw and the person operating it.......they always seem to mess it up. I guess its give and take.......convienience>quality sometimes, but then you get to spend half the day "fixing" a situation where the wood wasnt cut right. Give me the damn secret code and let me do it myself i bet i dont screw it up! (i guess theres a reason those guys are working at HD and not out on the jobsite anymore/ever)

Guys make a Sawboard just follow the directions on the site. It's simple and cheap to make and it will last a long time, I have had mine for about 9 years now.
