I have shown this before during other threads. Just to stir up some conversation and hopefully provide some value I am posting it separately. I don't use this beast often but it hangs on pegs near the tablesaw and is handy now and again.
When you need to cut larger panels the sled comes off the saw quite a bit. To make things less of a juggling act this support tongue is used.
I also have a piece of stock that is the same height as the sled base. A couple of rare earth magnets and some plastic dip smeared on for traction support larger panels that extend beyond the sled.
The whole affair looks like so.
This makes nice, true, larger panel cuts a snap.
I often do these cuts with a guided circ saw but I am doing multiple projects right now. There seems to be stuff everywhere.
At any rate I get the panels I need and can carry on.
It took longer to take the pics than it did to cut the panels
. My thought in posting is that this puts a large sled example in an easily searchable place for future or returning visitors.
