Throw Away Your Miter Saw and Make this Instead

Of course I'm not getting rid of my miter saw, but this is a good alternative to use on the table saw. And yes, you can buy one of these ready made (and you saw may have come with one), but this is more about the methods I used to build it than the final product.

Accuracy - you can dial it in to perfection at several angles (0, 22.5, 45 both ways) and then drill a locking pin hole through the plywood protractor and into the guide cleat for a 1/8" drill bit shank to lock it at that angle. Takes a bit of time, but once it's done, it'll be accurate every time you set it to that angle and insert the pin. I'll make a video on my Scrap Bin channel later this week showing how.

The key feature is the way the fence works and you can add it to a ready made miter guide. It folds back and acts as a handy place to keep the stop block. I need to add a magnet to hold the fence extension in the folded back position and I'll do that in the Scrap Bin video as well.
