Rockler has these for 59.99 w/ free shipping. Incra® Miter V120 Gauge
I may get a fancier one some day, but for 60 bucks, I couldn't resist.
I've had one for several years now - got it as soon as they came out. I'm quite happy with it. I added my own fence and flip stop.
Don't waste your money. The 1000SE or 1000HD are better choices.
I bought this a few months ago. Added an 18" bar with t slots top and front for hold downs. I also had the Delta and this is a vast improvement at a reasonable cost.

It's hardly a waste of money.
Let's see. The 1000SE has stops every 5 degrees, the V120 has every degree. The 1000SE does have a 180 degree range where the V120 only has a 120 degree range, But past +/-60 degrees you're almost ripping. The
1000SE does come with a fancy fence, but adding a fence to the V120 is trivial.The 1000HD is indeed nice. It combines the 1 degree steps of the V120 with the 180 degree range and fancy fence of the 1000SE. But the price is in the $150-$190 range and I still question the utility of setting past 60 degrees.
My conclusion - the V120 is still the best bang for the buck.

Yes it does. Either the 22 or the 23 is missing to make room for the
22.5.
It does have the 22.5 stops. As for wide crosscuts, I have a great sled that I use for wide boards for square cuts and a radial arm saw. I found myself using the Delta stock miter gauge for a lot of angled cuts for which I would normally use the chop saw, but am hesitant to do so due to its inaccuracy. I'm hoping this dispels my hesitation to go straight to the table saw for miters.

I make octagon frames and the 22.5 of course is key. My stock delta miter fits the slot perfectly and I'm thinking about hijacking that bar (if only it was 2" longer...).
My sled gets a workout, but it's only 90 deg. The miter gauge is light weight and fast to adjust, that's why I like it over any custom sleds.

Why not make a sub fence that will work with your sled AND give you the 22.5 that you need?
Just a thought.

I'd still need the miter gauge for gobs of other uses. Tight is right!
