    Slider kit
    This kid has made a very good quality parts and directions came out working great for making me a slide for my tablesaw. I would definitely recommend this kit thank you

    you need one of those if you ust bought a tablesaw
    The set came with clear instructions and with the more specialized parts (miter bars and screws) — you supply and cut the rest, namely a piece of plywood. The T-track and knob are not strictly necessary (you can set up a stop block with a leftover block of wood and any C clamp), but useful all the same. The price is very reasonable.The instructions are very clear and helpful. For beginners on a table saw, they also give an example of how to make sure that any jig you build (and, by extension, your future projects) will provide the same level of precision as your table saw — a good introduction to the world of woodworking.To make use of this kit, you’ll need a tablesaw, a 2’x2′ or 2’x4′ piece of sanded 1/2″ or 3/4″ plywood (what big box stores call “project panels”).Highly recommended to any beginner — anyone progressing beyond that stage will already have a few sleds for crosscuts, 45deg bevels, finger joints, etc.

    Not for Craftsman contractor saw
    I can confirm this does not fit the craftsman contractor saw. The table saw guides top lip prevents the slider from fitting. I will have to return this and maybe make my own jig. However this appears to be well made and fully functional for certain tables most like those with standard rails.

    Excellent table saw sled
    My husband can’t say enough good things about this table saw sled! It has revolutionized his woodworking projects. The precision and accuracy it offers are exceptional. He can make clean and precise cuts with ease, and it enhances the safety of his work as well. The sled is sturdy and well-crafted, making it a reliable tool in our workshop. We appreciate the time and effort it saves him on every project, and we highly recommend it to any woodworker looking to improve their craftsmanship.

    It’s OK
    The first issue is that the plastic bars are over sized by .010 of an inch requiring sanding to fit; the instructions say to use flat head screws to mount them. Using flat head screws douse not alow for fine adjustment in the event of less than ferfect square of your cuts. It is better to use #8 round head screws, drill to a depth of the head of the screw with a 3/8 Brad point drill and finish with a drill size not more than 1/32 over the screw diameter, this will alow for fine adjustment. My cuts are perfect. I also used a white laminated particle board redaly available at home depot 24 X 24 supper flat, slippery and inexpensive. Good luck 😁

    Works Great
    Used to build a cross cut sled and saved a lot of money over buying a pre-built one.

    Great for sleds
    Used this set with some other Powertec bits to create a couple of sleds for my table saw. The runners are great and perfectly sized. The T-track is great and easy enough to cut with carbide blades (just take it slow to prevent overheating). Yes, I could have made these things myself from hardwood, but this is easier, more accurate, and lets me spend a few bucks to save a lot of my time.

    Included Manual Leaves Out Important Step
    I like the product overall. The components provided were very good quality overall.However, the manual that is included needs some improvements, hence I gave the product a 4-star rather than 5-star rating.The manual leaves out one important step. Nowhere in the instructions does it indicate that you should also cut a kerf through the Front Fence. This step is logical but not indicated in the instructions. The pictures showing how to install the Back Fence show the kerf cut for that step stopping short of the end of the base, which is logical. But when you arrive at Figure 16 (“The Sled is Ready to Use”), a kerf through the Front Fence magically appears with no prior instructions to cut it. Admittedly, this can be easily done before using the saw sled for the first time. However, showing that step in the instructions is recommended.One other tip that could be included in the manual in the “Crosscut Sled Base” section to avoid a major mistake. To complete the sled according to the instructions, the tracks on your table saw where the HDPE bars slide must be EQU-DISTANT from the saw blade. My older Craftsman table saw’s tracks are different distances from the blade. It means that in the instruction “Crosscut Sled”, I could not use a center line for the kerf cut as shown in Figure 9. Granted, there is a general warning on the first page about adjusting the dimensions for the purchaser’s design or requirements. I noticed this early on and made necessary adjustments. However, another warning in the “Install the Back Fence” instruction section that the location of the kerf line to be cut might differ based on the purchaser’s table saw tracks if they are not equidistance from the blade.

    Great to use when repeat pieces are needed

    Even though the AC glue held the tracks in place. While installing the screws, one could hear the glue popping loose, resulting in just enough movement of the tracks to make it impossible to slide the sled. Tried this 3 times before realizing the pre-drilled screwholes needed to be large enough for the screw to drop in before cutting into the sled base. Gave up and made my own glides out of Oak.Got as far as Figure 9. Almost ruined my sled, using your instructions. You assume the saw blade is centered between the tracks. My Ridgit Table Saw’s mitre tracks are not equal distance from the Blade. So I had to find a work around to solve the problem. I finally got it done. But after all that frustration, I just didn’t feel like undoing everything and starting over with a different kit. So I have decided to keep your kit, but I feel some compensation is in order. Not expecting anything, though.

    This was my first mitre gauage after lots of research. The price matched the quality and honestly if its not Incra it won’t be square out the box.The screw for the expansion discs lost their threading which made it very hard to remove and adjust. There are only spare expansion discs with the product, no screws. Powertec customer service advised me to buy more screws, which off their website is an affordable $1, but shipping was “by weight” which came to $62 USD.Unfortunately due to this major error I was left unable to use the gauage, until i bought a replacement off Temu, and fortunately that came with extra expansion discs, which fit perfectly and worked as intended.I was really interested in powertec products, but following my experience with customer service, I will opt for other options at this price point. I will say that you can get the same gauges, fences, stops and bars for much much cheaper..

    The high density plastic rails and the metal T-trac are practically perfect for most new table saws. The only reason for 4 not 5 stars is the included plans for building the sled could be more instructive, but don’t worry as there are numerous better plans on Youtube.
