I purchased the Table Saw Crosscut Sled when it first came out. It is a great improvement over the shop made jig that I had. I am very pleased with it, and I recommend it very highly for a wood shop. I want to add another comment about Rockler products. I receive other wood working magazine's but I always go back to your company for parts and shop items. Your personnel are always friendly and helpful. Thanks

I'm not the easiest guy to please but I have to say I was impressed with this product. The sled is very well designed and equally well made. The main board is 1/2" thick 23-3/4" x 23-3/4" MDF table with melamine coating. This combined with the low friction slippery tape applied to the bottom makes it glide very well.
The miter slide bar has spring-loaded ball bearings that have adjustable tension to eliminate slop in the miter slot. The aluminum fence is nicely sized and measures 3" high x 25" long. The MDF fence face measures 2-7/8" high x 27" long and can be repositioned at any time to suit your needs and can be removed and replaced at will.
The easy-to-read 1/2° graduations and a hair-line indicator and larger scale makes this a breeze to use. The 90° stop is steel and adjustment screw is held in place with LocTite so it won't move once it's adjusted.
Both table boards come a bit wider and allows the user to custom fit this to their particular saw.
The sled drop off platform in made the same way. The miter bar has the same spring-loaded ball bearings but includes an additional feature that locks it in position so it doesn't move.
Conclusion:
As I'm concerned, this is one of the nicest and easiest to use miter gage / sleds on the market and will be in my shop for a good long time. Is it cheap; no, but them again nothing is these days but the quality and forethought make this a real winner.
This miter gage functions the same basic way any miter gage does, it follows the T-slot in the cast iron top. If your saw blade is not parallel with the T-slot then your cuts will be off. I suggest you periodically check this to ensure accurate repeatable cuts. Once this is done then trim the table boards to size and you'll be good to go.

I love this item. I feel it is of excellent quality. There was some minor damage to the board (not due to packageing) and like usual Rockler handled things perfectly. Now all the mistakes that I make are still going to be my fault!

The sled itself is awesome. Pretty much right out of the box it cuts dead on 45 and 90 degrees. The only reasons I did not give it a five are as follows;
1. The directions were horrible. I was pretty sure that I needed to trim the sled and the offcut table but at $100 was nervous and looked to the instructions..it was not mentioned. So I sent an email to March Spagnolo (The Wood Whisperer) and he told me to let it rip, or cross cut anyway... (It is because Marc Featured this product on a video about AFWS that I bought the sled and Bench Cookies, so nice job sponsering him Rockler. Keep it up as a result I no longer shop at Woodcraft.)
2. The low fricition tape did not adhere well so I don't use it. No big deal though becuase my TS is always lubricated.

Once it was trimmed to fit my saw the rest of the set up was easy. Used it to cut small profile picture frame material with it working very well. Should be packaged in a more substantial container as appears to be very easily damaged during shipping. The damage mine sustained was trimmed off during the set up.
