I was only thinking of putting the plastic against the blade to set the
fence. After setting the fence the square would be right out of the way.

the edge of the saw to the blade, and add that to the final figure. You can
follow something with the edge of the frame and the saw blade will never touch
it.

longer level or something along those lines and follow that with the saw as
well. Remember the saw blade is designed to cut things much tougher than
plastic and we don't want to have to tell you the best ways to deal with
plastic shards that you ended up wearing... hahaha
