Product Description

From the Manufacturer

INCRA's Miter Express offers any miter gauge owner the safest and most accurate cross-cutting and mitering platform available. Just add your favorite miter gauge to double your crosscut capacity up to 24". The Express features two embedded T-Slot channels to secure the included Hold Down Clamp and Outboard Fence Support. These slots are also invaluable for mounting your own custom Jigs and Fixtures. You can Dock ; Lock Any Brand of Miter Gauge in Seconds. Removing your gauge is just as easy - simply release three locking screws and lift your gauge out cleanly. There is absolutely no modification required to your miter gauge for this speedy lock and release feature. The Miter Express features removable front and rear T-Slot Retaining Clips for sled stability at both the beginning and end of long crosscuts. The miter bar is conveniently adjustable from above for a perfect fit in standard miter gauge slots measuring 3/4" wide x 3/8" deep. The miter bar's adjustment range accommodates actual slot widths of 0.740" to 0.760" to guarantee a perfect fit in your table saw's miter slot.

If you own a miter gauge - any miter gauge - you can turn it into a performance boosting miter sled in just a few seconds by simply docking it in place on top of this unique sled. This sled is a sliding, miter-cutting platform that fully supports and controls your workpiece throughout the cut. Miter gauges drag your board across the table, a sled slides the workpiece giving more support and control creating better, more consistent cuts. The Miter Express is designed to let you instantly drop and lock your miter gauge into the sliding platform. Once docked, it stays put until you undock it to switch back to your regular miter gauge. The sled features a built in miter bar that is adjustable for zero side play tracking, so even if your old miter gauge is loose in the miter slot it becomes rock solid once its locked into the Express. Other features include two embedded T-tracks to secure the included hold down clamp to anchor your workpiece, a locking drop panel that supports the offcut, and also provides zero clearance tear out control. Note: Miter gauge shown in photo available separately.

Costumer Reviews

I just love well made fine tuned tools - and this is one of them. I've used the sled for several projects since I purchased it and find it very accurate and easy to set up. I recently made some cabinet doors and it made a huge difference in how everything fit together. I was using a Dewalt 12" sliding miter to cut the rails and stiles. Being off just 1/32 is very noticable and the miter saw just doesn't align so easily. The sled arrives set up for installion on the left side of the blade, which makes the measurement gauges incorrect for use on the right side of the blade. A quick call to Incra and they sent inserts for right side operation. The only thing I don't like is the allen wrench screws for the miter gauge fence. When cutting double end 45's it's necessary to adjust the fence to clear the blade. It's a real pain having to keep track of the allen wrench. Thumb screws/wing nut type fastners would have been a better choice. I like the way it is easily removed to allow for cutting large material. Big Leroy's was very helpful and explained the differences between the Incra 5000 and the Incra Express.

I am doing my kitchen with mitered door frames and drawer frames. This sled, paired with my Incra 100SE are fantastic, and provide dead on miters. If you already own a good miter (Incra Preferred) get this sled, but if you are purchasing with the Incra miter gauge included, go for the Miter5000, as the sled is larger in area, and the included 3000 gauge is a fantastic combo.

Only downside on this design, is the sled is the exact same color as the so popular Freud coated blades, and that makes it difficult to see the blade for safety's sake. I solved it by putting some yellow mylar adhesive tape along the slot to provide contrast with the red blade. Not an issue if you stay away from the coated blades.
