Amazon.com We’ve found that even on high-end saws, the miter gauge is sometimes not the best it could be – a situation easily resolved by the folks at Kreg. You probably know them for their ingenious pocket hole system, but this miter gauge is worthy of fame in its own right. It’s not like any we’ve seen before, with a handful of features that work together to give you the ability to set an angle cut accurately to 1/10th of a degree – and beyond that, to adjust to 1/100th of a degree (hats off to you if you’re that precise!) Setup takes a little bit of time and patience, but the results are well worth it. It’s got a super accurate length scale with a magnifying lens cursor, similar to those on good table saws, and the curved flip stop can be used with the fence as is, or you and a pair of pliers can modify it easily for permanent use with a sacrificial fence. This clever curved design lets you slide your stock right under it. The slot bar has five patented nylon screws along its length that let you custom fit it to your table saw slot, completely eliminating any play. It’s got the positive stops you expect, at 0, 22.5, 30 and 45 degrees, and they’re marked by preset holes that accept a tapered brass pin, which locks in the angle with absolute precision. The gauge is marked with diamonds every five degrees for great legibility, too. But what sets this gauge apart from the pack is its Vernier scale, allowing you to set any angle in tenth-of-a-degree increments. Unless you have a degree in mathematics, don’t try to understand the process – it’s confusing and non-intuitive. Instead, just follow the step-by-step directions, and you’ll get absolute accuracy every time. And when Kreg calls something a "micro-adjustment" mechanism, they really mean micro. With this miter gauge, you can actually increase your angle by 1/100th of a degree by turning a nylon screw that increases the space between the fence and the gauge. For each .001 inch you put between the fence and gauge, you increase your angle by 1/100th of a degree. Kreg’s really hit the accuracy bullseye with this miter gauge, and adding it to even a so-so saw will give you fantastic results. Take your time with setup and follow the directions for the Vernier scale, and you’ll be as taken with it as we are. -- Kris Jensen-Van Heste Cut perfect miters consistently with our Precision Miter Gauge System.

By John Henry Newman In looking for an upgrade to my factory miter gauge, I considered the Kreg, Incra, and the JDS. Based on reviews here at Amazon, I eliminated the JDS gauge, and I was wary about the Incra (several models) because of the mixed reviews. Although no reviews existed here on Amazon, I found a nice online revew at "Online Tool Reviews" (dot com) Because I have been very impressed with the level of Kreg engineering on their pocket hole systems, I gave the Kreg gauge a shot. I short, the gauge is easy to set up, easy to use, and is accurate. The nylon screws make fitting the gauge to your miter slot a breeze. My dial caliper indicates that the Kreg gauge is about 1/128" off, after just a couple of minutes of fine tuning. I tested the miter scale with my Bosch Digital Protractor (reads to the 0.1 degree) and the Kreg scale is dead on. Kreg even provides a method to adjust the angle to 0.01 degree, but I doubt I will need to do that! You can refer to the aforementioned review for details on setup tips, so I will only add a couple of my own tips below: Think about how far away you want the miter gauge fence to be from your blade BEFORE you cut the self-adhesive tape. Make sure your gauge will clear your blade guard! I wished that I would have cut my tape at about 1.5" rather than the 1" called for in the manual. Also, when following the tape cutting procedure in the online review, be careful not to pull the adhesive off the tape! My adhesive stuck to the paper and I had to carefully re-stick it. Lastly, be aware that because of the weight of the fence, your gauge will twist whenever the fence isn't resting on the table surface (when you back the gauge off the table). The flip stop is really a nice feature; easy to square up a board without messing with the stop. Another nice feature is the hairline cursor that is attached to the stop, so you don't have to sight down the edge of the stop to get a reading (like you do for the Incra gauge). Overall, I am very pleased with this gauge, I'm glad I bought it, and my confidence keeps growing in the quality engineering of Kreg products. 33 of 33 people found the following review helpful. Very Nice for Furniture Making By D. Meermans The ease of set up and repeatability using the FlipStop make cutting and tenoning furniture parts a breeze. I use a two-foot steel rule when setting up and the accuracy is great. I do not use the stick-on rule because I followed the manual instructions and cut it too short. In any event, if you adjust the rail to accommodate an angle setting, you need to carefully reset its position so the tape is correct-too much trouble considering the steel rule provides a direct blade-to-stop measurement. Definitely get the FlipStop if you need to make same-length parts. It is a GREAT feature. The only objection I have is the little plastic buttons that prevent the rail from rubbing on the table are very easy to knock off and very hard to find on the floor. I cut a strip from a plastic cutting board to replace them. No more problem. 20 of 20 people found the following review helpful. Good tool By W. Eppick This is an excellent tool. My main happiness is that it is easy to set it up to be used in the right hand slot on the table. It is dead accurate -- I didn't have to tweak anything to make absolutely square cuts. HOWEVER -- I'd be a lot happier if the main slide bar was steel instead of aluminum. The aluminum bar flexes a lot. The plastic adjusters have to be adjusted EXACTLY right or the bar will flex, changing the cutoff angle - slightly. I'm a shipwright and a sometimes cabinet maker, running my own shop. If the slide bar were changed to steel, the tool would be perfect. (Yes, I'd be overjoyed to pay another $10 for a steel bar.) See all 14 customer reviews...
