why does everyone overcomplicate this BASIC concept?

I appreciate your walking into scenes… it’s subtle but it def makes it more dynamic. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Great video. The block on the back (or front?) of your sled is an outstanding addition to the sled for safety, which should not be overlooked!

Knuckle Puck... sick man. Always surprising to me for some reason when I'm randomly learning things from someone on Youtube and notice after a handful of videos that they are into the same obscure music that I am. Hardcore isn't all that common among the channels I watch to improve my skills. Thank you a ton for all you do man! Keep up the good work!

The dumb & dumber scene got me, so true!

The “annoying sound” joke is why I subbed

Great video, easy build. I look forward to making this crosscut sled as I'm currently in the process of transforming 1 bay of my 2 car garage into my woodshop. Thanks for all you do.

A note for any Canadians out there. Watch the shipping costs! CA Glue plus accelerator costs $55US or $74CDN to ship across the border.

Cheese, I subscribed today after watching a number of your videos on YouTube. I am really impressed by your work ethic, very much like mine. I was an electrical and mechanical contractor for 38 years but I always loved woodworking and now that I am retired I can enjoy it more. Thanks for your insight about BIG MEDIA. OldEddie

Great video and I love your commentary. After going through a couple saws and attaching/reattaching the runners… my sled was out of square enough to warrant realigning the fence. Like you I glued the blade guard to the fence (and base) which prevented me from being able to adjust the fence with the original pivot screw. I could have backed the fence off by an 1/8th and had enough room to adjust it, but I didn’t want to look at that all time. I’m about to build my next sled and plan on attaching the guard with screws from the inside of the fence.

I love that you used the Microjig dovetail hardware. Great idea. However, I highly recommend using their router bits. I have used an undersized straight bit to make it easier on the dovetail bit but it just wasn't as good as the Microjig clearance bit and it was not expensive at all.

New subscriber and new to woodworking. I've been needing to make one of these and your video has me confident that I can actually do it. Thanks for the simple explanation 👍

Great video, thanks for taking the time to make and share. I'm going to look to make one this weekend. The red devices on the back of the track, What are these please?

Great video. I have been browsing YouTube for a good sled for my new Delta saw. I watched one guy make his and he stated it took him 15 tries to get the 5 cut right. I used a square on my old sled and had no problems. I am going to try some of the dovetail hardware as well.

Great video and plan. I've been planning to make one without overcomplicating it. Have you done or could you do a video on trueing the fence? Long cuts often get uneven from one end to the other for me :/

Awesome sled. Where do you get that beautiful plywood with so many plies? My Lowes store plywood has like 3 plies to it.

Dude, I have been thinking about making one of these for a while and still plan to but this is one of the best designs I’ve seen other than 3x3’custom, all her jigs are amazing 😂 with that said, you are becoming one of my favorite youtubers! Keep up the good work. 👏🏻🤙🏼

That's a great idea putting that block where the blade comes out to keep all your fingers, thanks👍

I really like the way you explain everything. Great job !!

Just a quick question: Why did you put the majority of the sled on the side of the blade with the least amount of room for long material? (i.e., the side with a wall limiting sawing longer pieces?)
