I just built the Ng cross cut sled from Youtube and love it.  It's cutting 90* to .001" over 24" after the 5th cut...way better than any other sled I've ever made and that was after only one adjustment!  Anyhow, Ng mentioned that he did a miter sled as well and I'd love to build one, however I can't find a video on that.  Does anyone know how it's done or where I can find the video?

If you look on his site he has been meaning to make a video on the mitre sled for a couple of years but hasn't yet

Wow! .00033 that’s better than my sled. The calculation for the miter is a little bit different. You cannot use A-B/3 because the 3 angles are not equal. You have to use basic trig for that. If I have time, the miter sled is on my list of videos to make.

Hi Skip, Glad to hear it worked for you. Less than a thousand… impressive. The reason why I made the sled video was because we were replacing all our sleds. Every 2-3 years we change them out to make sure they’re at optimal performance. I’ll see if our miter sleds need replacing, if it does I will have my cameras ready. Thanks for watching and hope you visit back soon.
