Crosscut Sled Miters

This is a very simple means of creating a crosscut sled. There are 2 types of models, the first is capable of being resized to just about any table saw. It can also be dropped in without locking into the guides and quite easy to use. The second one includes the small flat part on the bottom of the rails that will keep it from tilting up when using. The rail sizes are perfect for my Dewalt DWE7485 compact table saw but you can resize them to fit your saw. Simply use any board you get a straight edge on. Line it up to your blade using a square or two. Use a little ca-glue to hold the board on that 90 degree perfect spot. Gently pull out the board. It's best to use a pilot bit to get a good straight drill hole for holding it. There are screw holes on the back and on the bottom of the rails. Put screws in at least 2 screws in both sides and it will be very stiff and hold a 90 degree angle. It's stiffer when using two miters on the crosscut board but it also works for me when using
