Re: Build a Super-Precise Tablesaw Crosscut Sled

I like how nitpicky everyone gets about some of these how-to articles, and how others like to one-up everyone else.

Although I have to agree that FWW just needs to do a better job of editing pictures-to-text before they release new articles.

I love the simplicity of this sled design (love the idea of going out and buying the aluminum premade miterbar - its precut and predrilled, what's wrong with that? Time is money.) The double fence (or triple if you include the back fence) is a brilliant idea that saves material in the long run. Just replacing that auxiliary fence when needed instead of making a whole new sled all the time - we know that when these things get heavy use, they do eventually get out of whack when they get dropped, moved, abused in a normal shop setting.
