Accurate & Beautiful
I used 2 pieces sliding sleds setup on Dewart 7480 Jobsite table saw and threw away its cheap miter gauge long time ago. I like the Dewart saw fence system and its compact design, but the uneven table surface and miter tracks make this saw almost impossible to produce precision cuts. I also don't have enough space for a full size expensive high-end table saw in the shop. I bought this excellent Incra HD1000 simply because of its accuracy and extendable fence, so I could build the large 2-pieces sleds and mounted HD1000 on left sled. Of cause, I mounted Dewart 7480 on RH lower corner of my 72"x 36" workbench. I really like the results of being able to use large LH sled when secured HD1000 with L brackets to it. And, push HD1000 miter gauge on miter channel that on the top side of LH sled to have accurate crosscuts of 45-90 degrees when locked sled to table saw and unlocked L brackets from HD1000.

Heavy duty and accurate. Fits my saw slot very well.
This, in combination with a digital protractor has solved most of my angle cut and layout issues.

Great Tool
Best miter gauge I have ever used. I needed to cut a 46 degree angle on 6 pieces of 18" X 24" pieces of plywood starting 1" from the corner on the 18" side. It continued to slip in the length of the cut and did not fit in place. After trying to cut 4 pieces, I ordered the Inca Miter 1000HD Miter Gauge. It fixed the problem on the 4 cut pieces and made the cuts on the last pieces perfect.

I Was Skeptical
My first introduction to Incra was their stainless steel rules and protractors. I had never seen that kind of precision in a measuring device.
My home-made sleds are really accurate but I wanted something light and quick to set up that was equally as accurate. This miter gauge fit the need perfectly.
In constructing sleds and using miter gauges the weak link to accuracy always seems to be the bar that slides in the miter slot of your saw. Any play in the bar will throw your cut off several thousandths pretty quickIy.
I was skeptical of the nylon expansion mechanism that Incra has designed to eliminate that loose play, but after working with the adjustments there was no play in the bar at all. With the instruction book (which is excellent) they also included an addendum with detailed instructions on how to adjust the nylon discs that tighten up the bar in the slot. Just pay attention to the position of the slit in the disc and you'll be Ok. Also, it was helpful to apply a very thin film of synthetic lube under the head of the screw that tightens up the nylon disc.
You can expect to adjust the 90 degree setting to your blade. (I adjust to the miter slot). The factory adjustment is close, but when you tighten up the expansion discs, the protractor will have to be readjusted to get a perfect 90.
The only flaw that bothered me was some bubbling and peeling of the decal that is on the protractor. I called Incra and they're supposed to send me a new decal. It doesn't affect the operation in any way so it's not a real big deal.

Always had the Incra miter gauge in my wish list to replace my home-made sled due to its precision and solid design of fence/stop, but the price was a bit high for me. Now that Incra 1000HD is on sale, I could not pass the great deal.

I'm getting back into woodworking and needed to upgrade my Miter Gauge as I gave my old Incra V27 to a friend who was shopping for something better than what came with his table saw. Incra makes very high quality tools, their miter gauges are very precise and simple to use. I wanted to upgrade to the new Incra 1000HD which Rockler just happened to have on sale, I can't wait to start using it.

Is this mitre gauge available in metric?
can this miter gauge replace the miter on a dewalt 7490 table saw?
BEST ANSWER: The guide bar on this unit is adjustable so you can get a good fit. I can be made to work if your saw has a t-slot to keep the bar from coming out of the slot.

How many expansion guide are there? In the photo it looks like there is only one at the end?
BEST ANSWER: That is correct. The three small black screws are to adjust the length. Please keep in mind that this guide is heavy on the left side. If you saw is short on the left you must be careful sliding it. Also the main fence can be moved along its' entire length if you choose to use it in the right hand slot.
Good luck. I love its' accuracy.

Will this work on a Rockler router table?
BEST ANSWER: I use it on my table saw. I put a piece of slippery tape on one side to restrict any lateral movement for more precise cuts. If the slot on the router table is the same (meaning a standard size) as the slot on a table saw, it should work.

Does anyone use this with the Powermatic PM1000? Is it that much of an improvement for the saw?
BEST ANSWER: I have a PM2000 and I do use this. The real difference is that it can be extended (like 12" or something like that), it has micro adjustments, and it has the fold up stop.

Will this work on a Bosch table saw?
BEST ANSWER: If the Bosch table saw has a standard sized miter slot, yes. Some saws, apparently Craftsman and Shopsmith do not. The slots are marginally different. If it is not, they make other bars that do fit. My experience is with the Shopsmith, and they do make one for it. You can find out for sure by emailing Incra. They are excellent in customer relations.
