Steve...there’s a review tab at the top of the screen below the LJ logo. You posted in the forums….not a big deal to me, but you asked. Glad to read you like your Incra. I just got an Osbourne miter gage and I can say the same as you….perfect! $109 plus free shipping for mine….Maybe you can do a re-do in the review section. That might help others looking for miter gages -- Measure "at least" twice and cut once |

I too have this miter gauge. I purchased it from Rockler where it rather regularly goes on sale for $129 or so I believe. If you’re looking for one and the amazon price isn’t that low currently just hold out until the next Rockler sale. It’s a great product although right now I favor my crosscut sled to a miter gauge for most cuts. -- Matt, Arizona, http://www.reintroducing.com |

Also, I have a sacrificial fence for my Incra, gives me splinter-free miters for delicate stuff -- steve/USA |

An older Incra 1000 came with a table saw I bought. It doesnt telescope as long as the one you have, but for a hobbyist like myself its a little slice of heaven. I didnt know what a gem it was when I first got it until I got my shop fox saw and started to use the miter gauge that came with it. Needless to say, when I sold my other table saw, the shop fox gauge went with it. -- I almost post pics....until I see the daily top three...then I delete my post. |

I have the Incra SE. It took a while to get it dialed in, but when I did, it is on track every time. At first, I was trying to align the fence to the blade. I knew better, it just took me a while to remember. Lined it up with the miter slot and we were good to go. |

yup…start with the saw. Get the saw blade EXACT to the Miter slot…then true everything from the slot. Nice. -- steve/USA |

Steve: You are right on the mark. Like everything else Incra makes, it will add the accuracy and repeatability to your work that will elevate it to a higher level. Love all of my Incra AND Woodpeckers stuff. -- "Now I'm just another old guy wearing funny clothes" |

I agree. Now, set it in the Miter Express sled. It’s a very nice combo. -- jay, www.allaboutastro.com |

I also love my Incra, it does not have the telescoping feature, but a few shop add ons gave me that functionality. My main question is about your splitters. Are those aftermarket? If so, where did you get them, and what do you think about them? -- Robert --- making toothpicks one 3x3x12 blank at a time! |

Thanks…the splitters come from http://www.microjig.com/ -- steve/USA |
