With the cutting jig I built and attached pics of, the blade is set perpendicular to the vise jaws, just as your HF 4 x 6 is permanently fixed.?
So, something like it, could easily be built for your saw.?

thanks for the link Wheeler. ? I haven’t thought about using a piece of steel to clean out the teeth when cutting aluminum. I also haven’t thought about using a V block. ? Unfortunately, I don’t have a huge V block, but the idea is in the head now.
Bill-I can see where the rotating head saws are super useful. ? Unfortunately, I have the old green paint 4x6. ?I have to admit, it took me a minute to figure out that you were rotating the head relative to the table and vice.
It’s good to hear from you John. ? I hope you have safe travels and enjoy your family.
This is no rush. ? With the price of steel, copper, brass, etc. now, I’m trying to cut pieces rather than milling/turning and making a lot of chips.
I also like the idea of using the saw on small sheet metal parts-these can be laid out and cut rather precisely.
