Here’s a link to a video that I made about my new crosscut / miter sled that I built for my Sears Craftsman 10” Table Saw with non-standard miter slots. I hope this helps some others who are looking for a solution to improve the accuracy of cross cuts and miter cuts with similar inadequately equipped table saws. Gauge slots and slide on most of the saw table. And where your miter gauge might have an 18' auxiliary fence, this cut-off sled has a 48' long fence. It might look a little awkward to feed through the saw. But just wipe a thin coat of wax on the runners and the base and the sled glides easily across the table. You’ll also find that you get a. Use a jigsaw to cut the 1' expansion slots shown in the drawing. Now, install 1/4-20x 1 ⁄ 2' threaded inserts into the jig bottom at each pilot-hole location, and attach the runners to the sled with the flathead machine screws. Tightening the screws causes the runner to spread slightly until it fits perfectly in your tool’s miter slot.

Using a few dimes I raised the miter slot runner up slightly so I could glue them temporarily to the sled base. If using the aluminum runners, use CA glue to attach them before using screws. If you opt for hardwood you can use standard wood glue. Once the glue is dry, finish securing the runners with some screws.

The table saw is the shop workhorse for cutting workpieces to size. But for small workpieces, this can be a tricky operation. It's difficult to hold the piece securely and at times, the cutoff goes flying across the shop. This sled is scaled down to make cutting small parts easier. Like most sleds, adjustable runners on the bottom ensure a smooth, sliding fit in the miter slots on your table saw. The sled features a simple fence with a stop block for making square, repeatable crosscuts. The real beauty of this simple design is the ability to add attachments for cutting miters, ripping thin stock, and cutting tiny parts to length. If your woodworking is on a smaller scale, this sled is an easy weekend project that’s sure to see a lot of use.
