I didn't see Robs question!, I asked the same thing.
I brought one of those panels a while back, it has a nice 3d effect when finished but I think its abit soft to be called a hardwood, though its harder than pine.

I agree EB. I am not used to working with soft woods. I have already steamed out two dents.

I mean necessity is the mother of invention... isnt what your doing part of the reason to buy a panel saw... to cut large panel?
In principle cutting a 95mm or 950mm is the same i thought? Use a packer to offset the fence so you dont wedge the piece being cut between the fence and the blade?

I agree that it is the same "in principle". But in practice ....
Having said this (shaken my head?), I have seen some ingenious super mitre gauges.

I have never regarded a short stroke slider such as Derek or I have as a panel saw, Derek's does not even have the outrigger to support panels as mine didn't when I bought it. To me they are just sliding table saws that can cut a small panel as a side benefit. I too have used those same Glulam panels and at first I thought they must have been made of offcuts but on looking at them it was obvious they were not, they are certainly good value for the money.
