And my old cross cut sled was in sad shape, so I made another one. It's got integrated sliding workholding clamps to help keep my fingers on my hands and dual HDPE guides on the bottom for easier but precise sliding. A coat of linseed oil and beeswax on the bottom for smooth sliding and Robert is your father's brother. I would have liked to have made it from thinner plywood for additional depth of cut but ¾" was all that I had (though it is plenty rigid and delivers beautiful sharp cuts). Now on to those boxes.
