    Sorry I am chiming in on this late, but I finally dug up my photos I did when I built my current (and only) table for my saw. I sit at it with a small office 'task' chair when sawing. Check out my Misc Creations gallery for the explaination on it...kind of proud of it myself http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-448

    Just thought I would throw something else out there (in response to ktownscroller's post). When I have cut aluminum, it mostly has been PPW (pre-painted) .050 aluminum. It's usually coated with a plastic cover on the painted side, so that when done, you just peel the coating off and it's good to go. I usually file the back with a fine file, which shines it up. Also, when cutting metals, found that if you use the #1 or #2 jewelers blades (I get mine from Sloan's Woodshop online) and don't push it too much, they work very well. Just be warned....when the blade breaks, and yes, 90% of the time it will before getting dull enough to change out, it will 'definitely' get your attention! Good luck to all that try

    I also have most of mine on the computer, but need to get a lot more of them scanned in. Problem being that the ones in the magazines come on this HUGE folded up sheet and kind of hard to get them scanned in. I'm looking at going to a local architect to get them scanned in as one big image and then using photoshop to cut them out individually to store...going to be time consuming to say the least.

    Mine I think would be aluminum, then brass or copper...mainly because there is no dust. Do have to do some filing when done, but not all the sanding as in wood
