    Abstract: Systems and methods for automated cutting of lumber are disclosed. The system includes a loading module that receives lumber from a loading area and places the lumber on a cutting table. The system includes an actuating module that receives the lumber from the loading module, inspects the lumber, records lumber information based on the inspection, and positions the lumber on the cutting table in preparation for cutting. The system includes a sensor module that detects the position of the lumber on the cutting table, and records the position to the lumber information. The system includes a computing module that analyzes the lumber information received from the actuating module and sensor module. The system includes a cutting module that cuts the lumber based the lumber information, the cutting resulting in cut lumber. The system includes an unloading module that places the cut lumber on an unloading area.

    Abstract: A stop for a tool that engages a work piece on a work platform includes a mounting assembly that can be movably mounted on the tool so that the mounting assembly is selectively positionable on the tool. A first member is operatively connected to the mounting assembly and projects outwardly from the mounting assembly. A second member projects from the first member to engage and locate the work piece with respect to the tool. The second member is mounted on the first member for movement along a length of the first member and is selectively fixed to the first member to adjust a distance between the second member and the mounting assembly.

    Abstract: A cutting machine with clamp assembly includes a saw blade, a worktable, and a clamp assembly. The worktable is adjacent to the saw blade and can move along a processing axis relative to the saw blade. The worktable includes a tabletop facing the saw blade, a processing area set on the tabletop and extending along the processing axis and corresponding to the saw blade, and a chute recessed on the tabletop and extending in the direction of the processing area. The clamp assembly can be operated to move along the chute. The present invention uses the clamp assembly to firmly press against the workpiece, thereby assisting the positioning of the workpiece and ensuring the safety of the user.

    Abstract: A carpenter's accordion is disclosed herein. The carpenter's accordion is a portable, compactable, and free-standing tool that may be advantageously used in combination with a table saw to increase the length of stock that one user can cut with a blade. Generally, the more sections that comprise the carpenter's accordion, the greater the lengths of stock one user will be able to cut using a table saw or other similar tool in combination with the accordion.
