I checked the search and found alot of crosscut sleds for the bandsaw. could not find any for miters. Has anybody made one for the bandsaw? I was thinking of making one mainly for cutting segments for some segmented turning. just seemed that would be safer than using the table saw for small pieces like that. The other concern I had is will the blade on the bandsaw flex too much making the cuts inaccurate?
Thanks

Table saw would be more accurate. My band saw is not accurate enough for segment pieces. Just my 2 cents.

The segmenters I am familiar with use either a table saw or chop saw.
