Okay, what’s the 5 cut method?

yes thats the 5 cut method. i was really surprised just how far off my cuts were at first using a drafting triangle and framing square to line everything up. i thought it would be pretty dead on but it wasnt even close. took me about an hour to get everything perfect

so far the sled works pretty good.

This site has a nice little video demonstrating the 5 cut method located at the bottom right corner of the page:

Good job on sled.
5 cut method is not full proof and wasteful. If you are fanatic about accuracy and want better than 0.02 then use a dial indicators.

that looks nice. I literally just put a sled together last night, but I’ll have to check out that 5-cut method to square it up
