I have that miter box and the saw, but the teeth on the saw are so tiny and have dulled so they don't cut very well. I will have to break it out again and see if I can make it work better.

Thank you.

I wish you would have contacted me first. That first frontal dimension is much bigger at 4 3/4" wide. If you want the rest of the dimensions I can provide that too. Uncle Tom
