[@acethrashin]

what's your solution to clamping smaller projects. what I'm talking about are like laser cut projects. I've been using normal sized clamps and i have noticed it tends to either A break what I'm clamping due to being a thin material or B it clamps it at a slight angle. ive seen that their are the mini quick grip clamps but they tend to break quickly. i've also seen that lee valley sells Hatagane Clamps which are miniature bar clamps made of brass. could you do a video on making clamps or what scenarios you use a type of clamp. and maybe review some of the odd clamps that are out there such as the Cam clamps for guitar luthiers

[@jamesbeecher4431]

Walmar should give you a commission!!! It's 12:15 AM Wednesday June 5th ~ 3 days afer you posted this and Walmart is sold of them and their web page says 'out of stock'. I'm sure it's all your fault!!

[@anchua6396]

The price of this jig has been adjusted by approximately 50% since the release of this video. I had intended to purchase one for $120, but I will no longer be making that purchase due to the price increase. This company's decision to raise the price is concerning and may impact customer loyalty.

[@grdutton]

$240 in Canada. Bit much

[@jimjordon9841]

I was able to just sneak in on the $120 deal. The price is now just over $175. Mine arrived damaged and they sent another sled base which also had slight damage but not enough to make an issue out of it. Quality control seems to need some attention.

[@Jenisonc]

The price is $120 when I check top link. Maybe they have re-adjusted the price increase?

[@iwanoutmans3537]

On top of the $179 comes $122 for import fees😢

[@grdutton]

@@iwanoutmans3537 wow! Thats a bit much!! I guess we cannot blame the manufacturer but still! Ridiculous!

[@tomlilly]

I bought the Rockler version of this sled about a year ago. Holy buckets! Love the simplicity and the accuracy. I hav a one car garage "shop" and have always struggled with space needed to store the sleds I have made. Have not had that issue with this one. Your videos never disappoint.

[@robertmills794]

I own the Rockler version too

[@1steelcobra]

Rockler also sells an add-on that goes on the other side of the blade so you get a zero-clearance cutoff support plate.

[@joelp.dietzjr.2919]

I also own and really like the Rockler set up with the additional cutoff side so that both tracks are used. I also picked up their small parts sled. All in all, pretty solid stuff.

[@uechikid8088]

Thanks for reviewing this crosscut sled. I’ve seen it for sale but wasn’t sure about the quality, but looks solid.. The price seems reasonable too. When talking about price to build tools, most videos say things like, “I built it out of scrap or left over wood”. Well, if you don’t have left over wood, you’re out of pocket for a, in this case, full sheet of nice plywood. Also, I understand the satisfaction of building your own tools/jigs, but my focus right now is on projects for around the house, not tools. Rant over. Thanks again for this review and all your videos. Im a big fan.

[@michaelcarlin1063]

199.99 now on amazon - $80 jump in 4 weeks. Quality company right there.

[@matreyia]

Yeah, I was gonna say, "weird" but I suppose greed isn't weird for humans at all. So be it. Let them be greedy, I'll make my own.

[@billdutra498]

Grizzly has the exact same one for $113 after taxes. Just put it together. Works great

[@matreyia]

@@billdutra498 just ordered it. thanks.🙏

[@dbf1dware]

Great video as always. However, I must say that I, personally, prefer your own crosscut sled better. Two main reasons: 1) the cut piece is supported on both sides of the cut, and 2) zero-clearance cut on the nearside fence. Two very important aspects for accuracy. YOUR sled is better. Keep doing such great work, please.

[@stealthesw7156]

I think most woodworkers would have enough scraps laying around to build a suitable crosscut sled. This way the components are already paid for and possibly the profits from sold projects would offset the cost.

[@SlaveUkrayini]

what a load of nonsense. Why not throw in the price of the table saw if you are going to charge for the dovetail bit?

[@Dynamic_Custom_Woodworking]

The five jigs video was not available up in the corner. I really like the new sled and will probably buy one but there’s something special about building your own sled and jigs.

[@bobp3738]

Perfect timing! I was just preparing to make a sled and bam, there’s your video. Must be a sign! One on order.

[@davidjefferds8532]

Since my shop is so small and I have limited time to spend in my shop I am more than likely going to buy a sled. Thx, for the video.

[@jimporter431]

Love your videos and value your opinion. I had looked at this before your recommendation. After washing I decided to purchase it only to be surprised that all of a sudden the 4 HD stores were all sold out and no longer offered them. I checked several other sites and the price had jumped right after your video came out from 119 to 159. The lowest price I found is Walmart at 149. This frankly upset me as that’s quite a jump overnight. Now I’m reconsidering. Thought you might want to know.

[@HuckFlynn]

Amazon link is now showing $175.99 so ... yeah.

[@pilotdog68]

I wonder what the benefits are of a sled like this vs a traditional mitre gauge with a big fence. Is the base really adding anything here? I thought the point of a sled was to support the offcut side as well, but this doesn't do that

[@billdutra498]

Just picked up the Grizzly version for $113 after taxes. Exact sled from what I can tell.

[@gswoodwoodworks]

Thanks for this thorough review Matt! I'm convinced now that the sleds I made before were junk, lol! Buying this from your link! God Bless brother!

[@dottielynch9763]

When they come up with one for a job site saw (DeWalt) I’d get one. I don’t see myself being able to hold the sled down and I don’t have an extension for the saw. 😢😢

[@myhoneyshandmade1077]

I have the Dewalt jobsite saw. Made my own using shop built runners.

[@davidsaviano9012]

Very thorough review Matt. Not too long, but with an ample amount of relevant detail. Thanks for your commitment to woodworking and helping the woodworker community. 👍👍👍

[@731Woodworks]

Glad it was helpful!

[@mesoed]

Absolutely adjust all the screws on the miter slot bar. How often during your cut are BOTH ends of your bar actually inside the miter slot. Yeah... probably not real long. Adjust further in as well, not just the ends.

[@jam5158]

Out of stock at Wal-Mart and now $149.99 on Amazon and Wal-Mart when they get it again. They must have seen your video and jacked up the price.

[@garymiller5937]

Thank you for your introduction to this product and your review, Matt. I think for my current skill level and what I might call lack of confidence in my skill I'd be better off buying a 😢sl

[@Sebastopolmark]

Quick question, where can we buy that for $119. Your Amazon link is $159?? Thanks

[@armsaaro]

I'm still a very new woodworker and it's definitely just a weekend hobby, so even something as simple as a crosscut sled can be somewhat let's say annoying to have to build and be accurate. My first iteration was horrible. So if I can find an affordable solution, I frankly don't want to mess with building my own. I'd rather spend that effort building a table saw outfeed/support so i can actually fit this sled since i bought it last week. That's why I appreciate what rockler does for having so many jigs (although too expensive a lot of the time).

[@HeyStripes]

One other benefit of making the sled is that if you do have a jobsite table saw you have two track and support on each side

[@gatordontplay8161]

I purchased the Rockler version about a year ago, works really well and very similar to this one. Held up great so far. Appreciate the info!

[@igorb7456]

See US table saw injuries stats. All those pseudo expert videos without smart guard system should be prohibited.

[@noelflores8989]

I'm not saying this is a bad thing but it's almost a direct copy of the rockler sled. We have choices now and competition breeds lower prices.

[@joebeaton1101]

Great video showing options!! I have a Rockler which is similar to the Powetec which I use minimally!! Have two different MicroJig Sleds that I made... Which I absolutely love and use 99% of the time!! For $119, the Powertec is a helluva buy!!

[@wabio]

Nice sled. The biggest issue I have is it only operates on one side of the blade. Whereas a full-sized crosscut sled supports the workpiece on both sides. This makes a big difference if you wanted to make cuts to a board standing on end.......like if you were cutting out box joints.

[@davidhundorfean7470]

That's a really nice sled. Terrific review. I like the Powertec products..

[@brentduplessis5033]

Thanks for the comparison between the sleds.

[@johnhoy3781]

Everybody else is out of stock forgot to add that

[@garymiller5937]

Oops. Better off buying a sled than making one. I've had to start too many projects over again. Perhaps this would help me up my game. Thanks again Matt! I really appreciate it. 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤

[@richpeggyfranks490]

Your shop built sled is still better. I guess if the extra 10" width and 4" depth is a deal breaker for folks with small shops (like me), then the Powertec may be good. I prefer a sled that covers both sides of the blade. Also, the dovetail clamps are overkill unless you're using them in other areas of the shop. For angle cuts, I made simple angled inserts from 3/4" plywood that clamp onto the top of my sled. Then the cut piece butts against the insert. Also, I made sacrificial inserts from 1/4" (3" wide) hardboard that run along the path of the blade. I can easily replace them when the zero clearance gap gets too wide and/or for for angling the blade. Thx for another great video.

[@greatgrandpaswoodworking]

I have made several "junk" sleds. I like this and just bought it from Amazon following your link

[@731Woodworks]

Nice! I think you'll like it!

[@RoadRacingAustin]

Did they discontinue it? Everywhere I look it says sold out and the Amazon link in this video sends you to another sled that is much, much smaller. Do a search. Everything on Google says it's sold out and they're are minimal links to them, yet the Rockler is available for more money.

[@RoadRacingAustin]

@@731Woodworks Is your Amazon link correct? Both of them link to another sled that is a lot smaller. If Amazon changes the part number and the model on a link, this typically means it's discontinued by the manufacturer, otherwise Amazon typically just states that the product is out of stock if it's still available from the manufacturer. Thx.

[@greatgrandpaswoodworking]

@@RoadRacingAustin I bought mine from link to Amazon for $119.99 on the same day of the video. I just today set it up. Love it. It is sold out as of today on amazon.

[@Corey.Deaton]

Thanks for walking us through the comparison with your sled! Very helpful video. Always thought I would build one, but seems like a lot of time and effort now 😂

[@RayCollins-dv4ts]

I've been thinking about making a sled want the flexibility of changing the angle. This Powertech meets the other ideas I have too and there is no rule that it can't be modified to make it more personalized and more useful.

[@Pygex]

Lists all the things you gotta buy to a total of $149 and immediately follows with "you didn't have to buy anything" 13:30 to 13:35, which one is it then, $0 or $149

[@brendasmith1533]

It's pretty easy to figure out the answer to your question.

[@kyleolson8977]

There are a couple of other similar sleds, although remember if you only want 90 degree cuts you should probably just build a crosscut sled yourself, or use a kit. Most of these are available in left and right, and most have a matching drop off, although you can probably build a drop off yourself. One I used extensively is the Incra Miter 5000. This is an Incra Miter Gauge attached to a sled. Before I had a full size table saw, this allowed me to use my job site saw in a safer fashion because it added more surface area safely. The biggest issue I had was Incra's tightening design. To get the drop off on or off or tighten the fit you had to use an hex wrench - but these fasteners were not made of good material. I had one of them which reach the point of being unusable. You can replace these. Another (and this applies to all the Incra Gauges) is that the back bolt is in a place where you have remove parts and spin the gauge around to tighten it. All of these issues encouraged me to look for another sled when I got a full size table saw, although I've ended up using a regular Miter Gauge instead mostly (Jessem). There are instances when I wish I want to get a Miter sled working again, but not enough of them. I have the Powertec sled, but the MDF was destroyed in a move before I ever used it so I can't say anything about it. I also have a Dubby Sled from Peachtree. I had trouble getting the parts together because of the same move. I really just need to figure out which parts I'm missing and get it fixed. On the premium end, there's Woodpecker's Autoscale. I haven't tried this, it's $530 per side and $130 for the drop off. I'm sure it's great.

[@Dustins_Woodworking]

I made my sled from scraps laying around the garage, and dialed it in with the five cut method. I just added that same powertec flip stop for $14. I kind of think a nice miter gauge and a sled is better than a two in one sled. But I could be wrong.

[@tompackman4640]

Great video. I like the portability of that sled compared to one I made. I also like that it has the miter function I do not currrently have. I have a a couple powertech items including my router table fence and I have been impressed by the quality and pricing.

[@markhexamer]

Everyone is out of this product, the sled that is. The lowest price on Homedepot was $105 plus 10% off military and pro card...Powertech says they will be released July 24th. I want to buy lol

[@michaelromnek778]

Great review. I just built my first sled last weekend. I used scrap wood in the shop, which made the cost much lower. Plus the time was spent working the wood, which was satisfying. I still need to do the t-track, but I have been using a clamp and wood block for a stop. So, for me, building was better.... but that is a sweet sled.

[@marinevet13]

Was going to build a sled, then I saw this video and was going to buy. I guess within a week they jacked up the price $56. Welp, now making my own sled and not buying Powertech junk anymore. Sad that they do things like this just to make a buck. Not sure the MDF will last anyway, seems like the grooves will end up breaking. Disappointed.

[@tomowens2720]

WAX the miter bar after you get it adjusted to you liking and reapply regularly. Wax the surface of your table saw, router table, jointer, drill press etc. Paste wax is your friend and a must have in any shop.

[@myhoneyshandmade1077]

paste wax is a great idea. works well in my shop.

[@det2boy]

The "genius" of this sled is that it also eliminates the need for an expensive upgraded miter gauge. Factor in that additional cost and it's a no-brainer.

[@VictorN-gr4vx]

I'm so glad you make these videos for us to show us what we should do! Thanks Matt!😀😀

[@doingithere]

Great video. I built mine years ago (not as nice as yours, but just as dialed in). But, I was thinking, anyone who wants to get good at woodworking should consider building jigs themselves just for the practice. That being said, I would totally buy this for $120. Seems like an affordable easy way to go. Thanks for the comparison video. PS...it looks like it is out of stock at Walmart and HD.

[@MrXgladius]

This is essentially the Rockler crosscut sled.

[@ejd53]

Well, neither company makes them, they're probably made in the same factory.

[@kmbbmj5857]

I prefer the simple design crosscut sleds, much like the one Norm built. Small, light weight, works great. Too many seem big, heavy, and clunky to me.

[@rickcperry]

I think it is comparing apples to oranges... Actually you probably need both because you need each in different situations. .Buy noe. build one... Keep going! Love the channel, keep going brother!

[@kencoleman7762]

I purchased the Rockler version and I really like it. I bought the optional piece for the right side to hold the cutoffs from dropping which is very nice.

[@rickibozza3166]

I have also purchased the Rockler version. I can't begin to say what difference thus has made in my shop. Keep the video's coming. They are always informative.

[@AnneDougherty]

I admit that I've been dragging my feet getting started in the shop because building a crosscut sled so I could build everything else seemed like a giant PITA. More than likely, I'll go with the Powertec to start and once I'm more confident I'll end up building my own.

[@thomlipiczky9021]

I always enjoy your product reviews, but here in September 2024, Amazon says the product is "currently not available". Sigh. Looked really good, too. Thanks anyway.

Good video but your Amazon link to Powertec Cross Cut sled is a different sled from what you demo'd. The Walmart link is the sled you showed but price is not $119.00 but rather $149.00. The correct sled is also shown on Powertec site but price is much higher.

[@mitchstallings7196]

OK, hobbyist woodworker here. Been making sawdust for well over 50 years (part time). I bought a higher quality Rockler miter gauge. What is the advantage of a crosscut sled versus a good miter gauge? Thanks.

My first crosscut sled was for making box joints and it was also complete garbage. I think I’ll wait until this is on sale, but this seems to be a fantastic product 😊

First i love the shirt, second i like the video

[@jackspeer2127]

I've been a hobby WW about 2 yr. I enjoy making jigs. I have made about 12 so far. Made a crosscut sled very early on. works great but I made it big to accommodate big pieces. Con is that is is quite clumsy to move around and also most of my crosscutting is done on small pieces so I made a second sled, this time much smaller (lighter too). But the price of that Power Tec is SO tempting. If I were starting over, I would buy that in a heartbeat.

[@jeffwilder7117]

Great review! I agree with your opinion on the adjustable nylon buttons for miter bar. I bought the Rockler version for $159 on sale. It looks exactly like the one you are reviewing. I have s woodpecker stealth stop miter gauge and it has a curved spring metal protruding from the edge of the bar. No adjustment necessary. Love your videos!

[@peterfreeman3317]

With regards to cost…this is one kit, all pieces in the box, fully engineered. No ordering parts and waiting for the last part. Time saver…time is money. Great for beginning woodworkers like me.

[@hansdegroot8549]

Tbh I expected the bought one to cost about 200 USD, so 120 is a good price imho. But if you have a smaller table saw then you need to have a support. I've built my own cross cut sled (a small one) for next to nothing, mostly 10 (ten) USD in materials It has some inconveniences so I'll make a second one.

[@papadingo]

I get the idea of perfection, but this would cost me around $500 including delivery to Australia. As we like to say in Australia. Yeah, Nuh. Will build one with my grandson. Love the ideas, though.

I guess the guy that use to sell this sled at The Woodworking Shows, called The Dubby Cutoff Sled from In-Line industries, must have sold the patent. This sled is so close in comparison that it's scary. That said, I have had the Dubby for nearly 15 years and it is well worth the cost.

[@raymitchell9736]

[@russellfay81]

Excellent information! Unfortunately, the timing did not work out very well for me. I'm just finishing up a new crosscut sled for my DeWalt contractor saw. Although, it may not have worked for me anyway, because I over sanded the left-side miter slot in a failed effort to get it consistent. As a result, I need to use the right side slot to keep jigs tight! I didn't realize how soft the top of that saw is. Now I'm wanting to get a saw with a cast iron top, but I built a substantial bench around the DeWalt, with a built-in miter saw AND router station! And I can't afford another saw just yet . . . :o(

Any and all input would be greatly appreciated

[@MrVirgilVox]

So many of these YT woodworkers dont use blade guards. Why? It is not cool. It is simply stupid. Btw. In Europe you can get sliding table Saws, with the table running directly at the blade, for less than 2000 EUR. Far superior and safer than those antique US cabinet saws.

[@MrVirgilVox]

@@tapanddestroy still one can use a blade guard.

[@tapanddestroy]

@MrVirgilVox while I agree to an extent. I know most cuts I make on my saw wouldn't be possible with a guard. Can't use them with jigs and fixtures/sleds. Can't use them for dados, etc. Only good for rip cuts and some cross cuts

[@paintstorm1]

Hey Matt, you have the wrong link for this sled on amazon. completely different sled

[@ScottyDrake]

I like my home-built cross-cut sled, because it gives your work piece support on both sides of the blade.

[@smorgasbord42]

Aligning the fence to the blade is not the best way to setup a crosscut sled. What you really want is the fence to be perpendicular to the travel of the sled, which is determined by the miter slot. Think of using a cross-cut sled on a router table or bandsaw - you can't align to the cutting tool anyway. After trimming the sled to length, just use your square on the cut edge and the fence. Then check with the 5-cut method.

[@morethanenoughwoodworks7654]

Since this sled is really not compatible with say a SKILL model jobsite saw, what would you suggest for a cross cut sled for the smaller job site style saws?

[@MacDa-yy8xn]

One thing I did years ago that you could do with this jig is to score a line into the top of my saw all the way from the blade to the outside of the table. This gives you a perfect reference line for the left side of the blade. I just did mine with a utility knife. Now I have a perfect line in the table top to line up where the blade will cut no mater what blade you use.
