I’ve learned almost all I know about woodworking from this forum, so I figured this might help someone getting into the hobby. My version of the crosscut sled. It’s 47” long, 24” wide, base is two layers of 1/2” Baltic birch, fence is 3/4” red oak doubled up and edge banded. I used the Kreg top track system and modified the rigid stop for my 4” fence. The runners are aluminum to minimize seasonal changes. There are replaceable zero clearance inserts on the base and fence that are fastened to the sled with 1/4-20 stove bolts. Made a couple attachments for stuff I commonly do. Squared it with the 5 cut method. It’s big, but honestly my incra sled was just too inaccurate for my usual work, and how I have ZCIs for bevel cuts, dados and even my custom ground 8 deg dovetail blade. The whole thing was sanded and I hit it a couple times with wipe on poly. So far my only impression is that I Waited entirely too long to make this. Feel free to ask any questions
