Decided it was time to make a well needed small crosscut sled. I got the idea for this one from a few different ones on the internet. I needed it to fit my Dewalt table saw, so got the dimensions from it. The bottom is 1/2 inch ply with the front and back of two 3/4 inch ply glued together for more rigidity. I used some scrap padauk for the two runners. After building it, I took a cut through it and adjusted the front fence to exact 90 degrees with the saw line with my digital measuring tools. I then installed a blade guard or block to protect hands etc. It was sanded, then sprayed with lacquer and sanded lightly. I then waxed both the bottom of the sled and the table saw to make it slide easier. I used the bandsaw to cut the back down a little to lessen the weight, and slightly rounded all edges for safety.
