Best precision mitre gauge?

tool companies including Amazon. Best in all of the reviews I have ever seen as of late.

95% of your crosscuts will be dead square or dead 45. Build sleds permanently set for those two angles.

I appreciate the offer... but that looks like a US dollar figure. By the time I bring it up to Canada with shipping etc... I would not be too far behind a new one purchased locally. If I am wrong, and it is in Canadian funds, I'll take it if jmac didn't beat me to it! ;-)

well I struggled with the accumiter for awhile. but then I got the makita SCMS and do all the miter cuts on it. I did a trade for a incra one as I was getting a bit of flex in my cuts on the SCMS. but once I got a forrest blade the cuts were perfect and now it just hangs there (G) but I am not the one to ask as I only used it 10 times.

I just found it did not go back to 90 very accurately. Mine was about 10 years old and they may have improved it. but the extension arm does not touch the wood so it adds no support.

Beyond the first 24", it does not contact the wood. I've not found that a problem because I'm holding it tightly at the other end. It has never racked on me. Ed

but all it is useful for is a measurement gage. it adds a lot of weight for that job.

Very important! The one that comes with the saw is accurate enough for framing a barn, but not fine furniture.

My favorite ones are the ones I build myself. I made a 90deg for frequent use and a 45deg for mitering. Both took

I have the fasttrack mitre gauge "deluxe" and I will attest that it is very accurate. I like the bushings for the common angles - it is dead-on for all of them. Easy to use auxiliary fences too if you need to.

*In a deep voice* Thank you. Thank you very much.

Me too. I like my 1000. However in hindsight, I would go with a flip-up stop.

Incra now makes a $60 version of the 1000.

The Woodhaven 90/45 gauge is excellent for about $60. My buddy has one and I'm impressed with it's accuracy and simplicity.

I also use my good miter gauge on my router table.
