Since we replaced our Grizzly table saw with the Saw Stop we have been in need of a new crosscut sled. We thought about building our Extreme Crosscut Table Saw Sled but realized that it could use a few improvements. Don’t get me wrong, it is an excellent table saw sled and is a very popular tool. However, one issue we have had with it, is its weight. It is just too heavy.
So, we decided to design a new sled that would function just as well as the old one but would also be HALF THE WEIGHT!
We liked that we could switch between thin kerf and dado blades without having to build a whole new sled, but rather than having to remove and replace the zero clearance insert every time we change blades, we designed it to move them to accommodate the blade thickness.
We also thought about the different sleds we use and incorporated some of those uses into this sled. So, instead of having a large and cumbersome sled just for making picture frames, this sled has an attachment to make picture frames perfectly. And, instead of a separate sled for cutting accurate angles we have incorporated an attachment that will do the same thing.
The movable zero clearance inserts can also be moved to allow the blade to be tilted to cut bevels. And, it accommodates both left and right tilting saws.

My favorite feature of your video is that you show us what your sled can do FIRST, and only THEN how it's made. That is, you "sell" us on *why* we want this, and once our interest is sufficient, we're in for the details. Yes, with other KZfaqrs you can skip around all you want, but I think your approach is more logical and intuitive. From this alone--good videography!

This appears to be the ideal sled. Love the detail in the video. I have been doing outdoor projects for years. Always used a miter saw and circular instead of a sled on my table saw. Now it is time to do some detailed woodworking. I just ordered the plans. This will be a welcome accessory in my workshop.

​@@KingsFineWoodworking in the beginning of the video, you cut a mitre and then took those 2 pieces and made a 90° corner? You do know that if your one cut is 45.25° the other cut will be 44.75°? Both total 90°. Being accurate would be cutting 4 pieces from the same side. Using both sides works if you are making a frame but sometimes you may only need 1 45° cut and then it may be off a hair. Also, if you reverse the mitre template to look like a V, you will get a smoother cut and no chipout on the inside of your mitres. Try it on a mitre saw, cutting mitres with the point against the fence or the point on the side where the degree handle is.

I am in the process of building my sled. I added some epoxy under the t-track on the base to give a little more holding power since the screws are only 3/8". I put on the rear fence yesterday being very careful to keep it square to the blade, did the 5 cut method and the math and ended up with 0.0001". Good enough!

I think I have the same little table saw you have. I was about to ask if that sled will work with mine or just the big fancy table saws. Do you know? Also, do you have issues adjusting your blad to a perfect 90 degree? Mine is a little off. I can get it there but I have to put a lot of pressure and lock it down while forcing it into place. And it eventually vibrates loose.

I am just near completion of this sled and everything seems to have worked out quite well, my only regret is that I used the best Home Depot plywood. It is too soft, it has voids and I hope the sled holds up. I chose Home Depot because there aren't many sources for baltic birch that is near me. Never again . I should have used a router to make the counter bored slots with the Home Depot ply, it probably would have been a lot cleaner with less tear out.

When you do the 5 cut method you need to use the distance from the pivot point to the point you adjust, I believe, not just the entire length of the fence. It would help you if you selected an easy round distance from the side when you put that first screw in on the opposite side. (not that it makes much difference in this case, you're already working with very tight tolerances)
@williamcthompson7410
@williamcthompson7410 4 ай бұрын
One of the fun eccentricities of furniture making is the obsession with reducing error.... I was thinking the same thing. I watched the video last night and couldn't stop thinking about the 5 cut method and where the miniscule error he had left over came from. It's the distance from the right hand pivot point to the left hand distance not the length of the fence. i watched his video a few times already and he does say the distance between the two screws at one point. I think he means the distance between the right hand pivot screw and the left hand stopping point where you shim it out. Bur he's putting the new left hand side screw really close to that same spot so it's the same thing for all intents and purposes. In fairness though at some point you're going to run into the natural +/- of the tools you're using. If the $30 caliper says 0.002" I do not trust that a different measurement a hair's width next to it isn't going to say 0.003". Plywood is not solid material. The blade vibrates VERY VERY slightly. There are miniscule errors being introduced everywhere in reality. We all know though the point is to control what you can control and know when to stop. And in this case we can control using the right distance as a multiplier on the error/in.

Hi James. I just got the basic build done on the sled. Cindy over at molasses Creek says you want comments if there's any problems. The only problem I've run into thus far is the t-nut holding the fence extension was counterbored too deep by about a 16th of an inch and prevented the extension from being pulled out. I knocked out the t-nut and ground down threaded section about 3/32 and that fixed the problem. No other issues as yet although I like Cindy's idea of screwing the safety box on rather than gluing. I'm going to see if I can remove mine and do it that way. Yes, I've already cut through the back of the safety box..

I bet you can come up with a finger joint jig plate that swaps in place of the adjustable pieces on the fence. This would be a pin-and-slot jig like any used to make finger jointed boxes, but it fastens in place in the gap on the fence where the adjustable pieces usually sit. Various plates each with different pin and slot widths for different widths of fingers....

I was thinking about that too. I just built mine from 3/8 using the plans. If you used 1/2"... The bolts the plan calls for might not be sufficient. 1/2" is 12mm thick and not 9mm. The button head bolts pretty comfortably reach the blind nuts with 3/8" stock. I suppose you could also recess the blind nuts a bit more to try to reach the bolts. Or make your channels for the zero clearance inserts a little deeper to help the bolts reach the blind nuts. It adds 33% to the weight. But.... it's reasonably weighted as is so that doesn't feel like a showstopper. The stop block hardware won't not be long enough with a thicker fence. Your back fence would be 36mm thick and not 27mm. You'd have to pick a new 1/4" aluminum rod from HD and a longer 1/4-20 hex bolt (even if you have to cut it down). My stop block only gives 1-1/4" between blocks until it's open "too far". You could get away with recessing the bolt head deeper into the block but I wouldn't do that with the 1/4" aluminum rods pins on each side. I studied the plans for several hours before building it, so I think I'm pretty familiar. I don't see anywhere the measurements of the cuts are affected by the primary board thickness. That said, I also used a piece of scrap 3/4" BB for the front fence instead of messing around with gluing 2 pieces of 3/8.

Question related to the gluing of the "T" nuts: would it be a good idea to glue the space before you pound in the nut to make the gluing be a stronger additional hold, since the glue would be on all parts that connect the sled to the nut that way?

Hi James. Question regarding mounting the miter bars. Do you have the adjusting screws for both bars apposing each other? In other words, in your video, you showed us adjustment to the 'left' bar and the screw driver was on the saw blade side. Did you then adjust and install the right bar the same direction (screw driver closer to your fence) or the opposite direction (with screw driver on the saw blade side. Hope my question makes sense. THanks!!

A great design. I also like to reduce the waste and cut my pieces to size and careful glue up. I am in a condo and use to have a table saw, but limited space and times that I can use it. Limited to using a track saw, but could be worse. The US has access to so a better variety of materials and we in Canada do not.

@kingsfinewoodworking - Can you technically cut a bevel cut with the blade at 45 degrees by adjusting the zero clearance insert and cutting accordingly? I know it would leave another cut line in your fence and fence insert, but certainly would be handy for bevels.

James, Best sled I have ever seen. Hands down. Fantastic piece of work. For the kit version, are all the parts included for making picture frames? I assume you have to supply your own ruler and digital angle finder for the sled? Any recommendations on these? Thank you 🙏

Hi! Thank you! Actually everything you see is included when you buy the whole sled. The picture frame & miter function are both included. And the digital angle finder and the ruler are included too. Every single piece of hardware I show that’s used on the sled comes with it. Hold down clamp, toggle clamp, exotic wood stop, all of it. You don’t have to buy a single thing.

I've been needing to build a new sled since recently upgraded my table saw. This looks like a tremendous sled. Decided to go ahead and order one because the precision of being CNC cut and the Baltic birch. Ordered last night. Excited to get it. Looking forward to follow up video. I'm already thinking about doing some box/finger joints with it. If I'm thinking about the design correctly, it should not be difficult to add a finger spacer to the replacement insert in the fence. Correct?

I have seen plans call for using strips of 3/8" plywood ripped to the exact length you need. Not as fancy but miter bars are pretty pricey given the relative expense of your table saw. Miter bars he used look like 3/8 x 3/4. Given the physical toll these would take I would use oak maybe? Don't know how much oak expands in humid conditions though.

I actually purchased the OEM extension wings for the left side of the blade and the out feed/front of the saw that gives me an additional 18” inches in each. I’m hoping that will help.

⁠The extension wings will help a lot! But the nice thing is, if you ever move to a bigger table saw, you simply unscrew the miter bars, and re-install this sled on your new saw. This sled should last forever out of Baltic birch!

I enjoyed your video(s) and am in the process of building the fence. One question, regarding the fence adjustment. When you adjust the fence you are "rotating" it around the one screw on the right (which is not at the end). So, the right end of the fence beyond the screw moves forward slightly as the left side moves back. Is this enough to make a difference requiring you to chase your tail to adjust it or should you measure the length of the fence from the screw?
