Reuse Crosscut Sled

I don’t know anything about the original sled (size, accuracy, condition, materials), so can’t really say if it is worth “repurposing” it. My thoughts are, since you upgraded the saw and have used a sled, it is time to “upgrade” the sled and incorporate some features that are not on your original. Just my $0.02!!!

Here some more info, that I should have included before. The sled is in really great shape and has been very reliable and accurate. I built it out of some left over 3/4” oak veneer ply from a big box store and is about 24” x 36”. I basically use a variety of plans I kind of fused together, but it was mainly based off of Mark Spagnuolo’s video.

Build a new one.

Add the current sled to the jobsite saw package when you sell or give it away, or use the parts to make a smaller sled and/or dado or taper sleds.

There’s no reason a a good crosscut sled needs to take more than an hour or so to make, and different sizes, dado kerfs, taper and miter sleds… are all handy.

When I sold my last cabinet saw to get a SawStop, I gave all the sleds that fit the General to the new owner.
