This seems like a nice sled, has anyone tried using it with angle blocks to cut pieces on angles?

I have one, it is well used and saves fingers. The stop purchased with it is useless. Even with that I love it. I simply use a nice piece of scrap and a spring clamp. I place the tube between the wood stop and the sawblade and start cutting. My hands are inches from the blade every time. Rarely the cutoff sails away, but usually it is nicely to the right of the blade due to the downslope edge. If I ruined it I'd buy a new one immediately.

I now use this one using Microjig components. Much better. The stops work and the blanks are securely held down.

That looks a tad bit like the one I made about 13 - 14 years ago and still have, only yours looks much much better!

I just cut 60 blanks and it was the safest and best cutting sled I've used. I like my hands and eyes.
