I'd be worried about slight waviness in the cut--there's nothing keeping
you going straight other than your own skill.
The ability to cut thin strips is interesting though--that's one
disadvantage of the usual straightedge approach.

Just a variation on the little metal ones you get for $5.00 that slip threw
a slot in the base plate.
