WOOD magazine's Editorial Process Updated on April 10, 2024 Setting up perfect miter cuts can be time-consuming. With a miter sled, you do it only once, when building the sled. Cut the pieces for the miter sled to the dimensions shown in Drawing 1. After attaching the miter-slot guides (adjust width for your saw table), put the jig on the tablesaw and cut a kerf 71⁄2 " into the base. Then follow the steps in Drawing 2, and use double-faced tape to temporarily attach the fences. Test your setup by miter-cutting four pieces to identical length and dry-fitting them together as a frame. Check for a tight joint at all four corners. If needed, adjust the fences. Then screw them down in their final positions.— WOOD® magazine shop If you like this project, please check out more than 1,000 shop-proven paper and downloadable woodworking project plans in the WOOD Store.
