Panel Sled

OT: consider a third for dados (just did that myself).

You could also create a swappable plate for the center 4" or so of the sled. The same sled can then accept dado slotted plates, a standard kerf plate, or miter plates.

Simply pick an easy to duplicate width, attach it to the bottom of the front and rear fences with 4 recessed screws from the bottom (OUTSIDE the possible blade kerf area) and you're good to go.

Yes, it has been. The answer seems still to be Johnson's, or Butcher's, or pretty much whatever your friendly, locally-owned and operated hardware purveyor has on the shelf. Look for some blend with carnuba in it. One can lasts a very long time.

Some of us even smear it on furniture now and then. Preferably over environmentally safe, food-grade, hand padded, shellac.

I like a paste wax designed for floors, like the classic Johnson product. It can be found in many stores in the floor care product section. Look for a pure wax formulation.
