The 1st thing I noted was that the handle has very sharp edges. These need to be rounded off with 1/2" roundover. The 2nd thing was the adjustable boards to close up to the blade. The problem with these is that you can't close them up to the blade completely as they'd get chewed up by the blade. Not quite zero clearance. These should be replaced with 3 equal size MDF boards that can be interchanged. This would allow raising different blades through each one to have true zero clearance. Zero clearance slots give the best reference for where a cut will be on the work piece. The 3rd thing is the weight. This made it so it wouldn't slide as easily as it could. Wax the saw and the bottom of the sled. Finally, the miter guide is about 1/32nd or 3/64ths too small. I'll have to do something about that. These are all minor things that do not detract from its usefulness.

This is a great sled. Solid built, fits the miter slot in my craftsman table saw very good with no play.
Allows much wider crosscuts. The hold down clamps sold for the drill press table work very well with this sled.
I would like to see a video showing the use on the router table as well as the table saw.
The stop is solid and the fence angle setting are on the mark.
Very happy with it and have already recommended to friends.
