He has a website where you can order plans. They are pretty inexpensive.

nothing special about the kapex over the other top saws when it comes to accuracy i just bought the dewalt 780 to replace my kapex dead on and holds it same with my non dewalt double compound chopsaw
Hi Dan,
For what you want to do, your existing saw may be sufficient to the task. Given you have a good blade on it, zero clearance fence and a bed with hold downs.
It could be argued that a double bevel, sliding saw may not necessarily give you a more accurate cut on the size of material you are using, flex in the rods, etc.
Having said that, I do prefer using my Dewalt 780 (half the price of a Kapex) over my table saw, just personal preference but the key to both methods is using hold downs.
For extreme accuracy, a touch up on a disc sander works for me.
Dust collection wise, you can't beat a dedicated hood on a SCMS..

Sorry, didn't see page 2 and this answer
Nobody said it was more accurate. He prefers using a miter saw. With his previous saw, he had to sand segments before gluing. With the Kapex, they come from the saw ready-to-glue. His experience, YMMV.
As a professional segmenter, his time is money. He finds the miter saw faster for much of his work, and the Kapex even faster. He also uses table saw sleds in some cases and told the group to use what they like.
BTW, he also disclosed that Festool gave him a Kapex, but if it died tomorrow he'd buy one to replace it.
