MiterSled

Building a miter sled for the Shopsmith. The primary function will be to cut picture frames. Yes, I have a miter saw, but the slight differences in setup swinging between the 45 degree settings (left and right) causes issues. In theory, alternating the cuts between the left and right sides on the sled, perfect 90 degree corners can be achieved. I built Version-2 of the sled in late 2018. The Version-2 sled can be seen here.

I used the miter sled from the previous project to create a set of 4 gallery frames and 4 frames of a more traditional styled frames

Using the sliding miter sled to rip the bound edge from magazines. The un-bound pages can then be scanned using my sheet-feed, dual-side-scan scanner.
