Before I used my miter sled ..I masked off 3 1/2 " wide "Pads" on the miter rail on the back side ...not the screw side then applied JB Weld to each of those masked areas . After it set up hard I took a flat file and fitted it to my miter slot in my saw ... This works great ...Its very easy to get an exact tight fit and still smooth and easy to slide... and as it wears later I can still bring the screws out ever so slightly to make those adjustments.

I have a Delta Shopmaster and it fits fine but needs fine tuning with the screws. The screws loosen every few cuts so you need to keep those adjusted. Otherwise it works fine.

I found it easy to use and great when I need perfect 45's.
It saved my bacon on one recent project.
Problems
- The plastic set screws used to tighten up the slid in the slot allow you to make not quite 45's although the combined angle is still 90 degrees
- The set screws are soft and will wear.
- The plastic surface was slippery. Solved this by gluing sandpaper to the surface.

Very simple, safe, easy to use, accurate 45's. I had been using a home made sliding table for my 45's. This little jig does it easier and just as accurate.

I just got this and to test it I found a strip of plywood and cut 4 triangles, eyeballing every cut. and I came out with a perfect square. no gaps because of an angle being off, and no set up. I can't wait for the 30 and 60 degree Miter Sleds. now that I've used it, I can't think of a reason why you wouldn't own this thing.

Customer Rating:

Fits perfectly with my Ridgid TS3650 table saw. This is a very easy to use tool that just saved the perfect miters I needed for the table I'm building.
