Hi, Rob,
I made a jig by cutting a little plexiglass base and fastening some verticals to it (hard maple) that friction fit the multi-master into a vertical (handle up) position. This keeps the blade paralell to the plexi edge. I made a straight edge by bent laminating 1/4" masonite into a long arc. The bend serves the purpose of applying pressure into the center of the veneer sheets that I am cutting. There are a few more details that are hard to describe, but using the standard saw blade that comes with the tool I can cut long grain, cross grain, diagonals, tapers, sunbursts, anything. This thing will allow you torun out little 1/16" strips of veneer if you want. Miraculous!
I was wondering if you could email or post a picture of this?
Thanks
Dave
