It's aluminum extrusion, t-shaped, and can be used / configured in any miter slot, right or left. This is a slot style that can be used in a variety of ways.
The SE version has detects every five degrees, while the HD version has detents every one degree. degree. Aside from that, they're exactly the same. Both can be set to a value of zero. With the vernier scale, you can get to within a few degrees of accuracy. br>br>As a result, in response to the question: How frequently do you perform cuts that necessitate detents at one time? increments of one degree 90% of the time, the majority of people cut at 90 percentage of the time of the time of the time of degrees. The 45-minute mark is the next most popular. degrees, which compromises by nearly 9%. It's a rare occasion when people need to change their perspective. So, how often do you think you'll have to change the temperature to odd degrees?
In comparison to the Inca 1000, I still prefer my crosscut sled. Especially if you're working with small pieces!
Yup - Anything 3/4 wide and about 0.25 deep should suffice. It should be possible to get 40 people deep. The width of the Incra miter is adjustable between 0 and 1. I measured my Incra miter at 750 and it was 0. 375 deep. All of this, combined with the fact that it works on all of my tables (saws, routers, and so on) as well as all of my neighbors' tables, suggests that it should work for you.
Selected User Reviews For INCRA Miter1000/HD Miter Gauge
For the past two years, I've been using this product. Overall, this is a fantastic tool. I swear by it because of its accuracy, repeatable cuts, and flip stop. The mitre gauge indexing at 1 degree spacing made it frail, so I gave it three starts. Purchase the Incra MITER1000SE if you do not require 1 degree increments. The left side of the fence extends off the end of the table when the gauge with the fence is inserted into the table saw's mitre slot. If you walk past it and bump it, the registration pin will bend the indexing pin, destroying your mitre gauge. I've gone through two of them this way and have just purchased a mitre gauge with 27 indexing angle slots to prevent this from happening again.
This has been in my possession for about 6 months, and I use it on a regular basis.
In December 2020, I upgraded to a new cabinet saw. Because it's a high-quality saw, I figured the stock miter gauge would suffice (I'd never used one before). I was upgrading from an older model Dewalt job site saw, which had a terrible miter gauge. I started using the new table saw with the stock miter gauge and was pleased with the results, so I decided that investing in a quality miter gauge would help me improve my workflows. I got this one and it's AWESOME! It's extremely accurate and reliable. I can now get perfectly square cuts in a fraction of the time it used to take. This is the miter gauge for you if you're looking for a high-quality, precise miter gauge. a word of warning br>br> If you have a Sawstop, make sure there is enough space between the blades on the miter. Also, if you extend the extra wing (I'm not sure what it's called, but the miter extends to the left a certain amount so you can loosen the set screws on the left extension piece a little more for longer cuts), make sure you return that extra wing to zero BEFORE pulling the rest of the left side back to zero. If you don't do this, the miter's internal slide will protrude from the right side of the miter gauge (and be easy to miss if you're not looking for it) and trip your brake when it comes into contact with the blade! I'm not going to tell you how I know this. This is a costly blunder that many of us have made.
The quality is superb. Once you've set it up, it's a breeze. Because I couldn't get the expanding rollers to work, I gave it a four-star rating. I couldn't back out of one because it was stuck. Two allen wrenches were twisted until the small screw was stripped. I was about to return it for a refund when I decided to look at some of the other reviews that had similar issues. I should have read that first and pre-greased the expanders with silicone grease (the company should include this step in the guide or pre-grease the items). I was able to drill out the screw, and they thankfully provided a spare. Setting it up was a breeze after adding some grease to the plastic parts. I was worried that the tracks on my Sawstop contractor saw weren't precise enough, but they're perfect. I'm having trouble making jigs that don't move. There is no movement in this miter gauge, and it is extremely smooth. I'm glad I went ahead and purchased it. Even on my smaller saw, it performs admirably. There are some limitations when using it with a smaller saw, such as not being able to pull it back quite as far because all three expander grommets must make contact in the track for zero movement, but this hasn't been an issue for me so far. Because I require portability in my saw, it will have to suffice.
