摘要 |
The present invention is a durable, lightweight, compact, portable and adjustable roller support apparatus for supporting an end of a piece of material while maintaining the end at a height substantially equivalent to the worked-upon opposing end of the material in order to facilitate sawing or cutting of the material, when the saw or drill is placed on the floor. While sawing or drilling one end of an elongated piece of material, such as plywood, it is necessary to adjustably raise the opposing end in order to facilitate cutting. The apparatus comprises a roller, upon which the non-worked end of the material is to be supported, a supporting and adjusting mechanism allowing the non-worked end of the material to be raised and lower to accommodate different saw sizes, and a durable, compact stand portion which is placed on the floor, Preferably, a guide member aligns one side of the piece of material in order to facilitate cutting, and the bottom surface of the stand portion is coated with a rubberized material in order to prevent marring of the floor surface upon which the apparatus is placed.
