K-Sled, MY take

Post by DarwinStrings » Fri Jan 02, 2009 11:49 am

What do you do when you can not glue.

The Ksled looked great to me but as my Band Saw doesn't have a mitre slot I needed another way to get it to work and swinging it seemed to be the way to go. The radius of the swing is 330mm so you don't notice a curve in the Kerf.
