1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible Engineering, Design, and Execution, May 12, 2001

What a complete waste of money. This is a poorly designed clamping miter gauge, with enough play in each of the assembled parts to render it all but useless. It is sensitive to any contact with anything to the point of being unusable. The parts are very low quality, they don't fit together well, and actually using the clamp (its salient feature) causes the miter angle to change by as much as three degrees.

Save your money. The only thing worthwhile about this utter piece of garbage is the bar that goes in the miter slot on your table saw. That can be salvaged and attached to a jig.

Simply horrible.

1.0 out of 5 stars miter guage review, April 6, 2001

This is probably one of the poorest made table saw accessory I have ever seen. I purchased it to replace the gauge that came with my craftsman saw only to find that it was worse. It is cheaply made, fits together poorly and will not hold an angle. (bump it, and the slop in the pivot allows it to move about 3 degrees). The only redeeming feature is the hold down, which is a good idea, but it doesn't work. The adjuster slips under moderate pressure and will allow the work to come loose or shift. If you're a SWMBO buying one for your spouse, just make sure you insure the heck out of him first!

The slide bar was to tall for the grove in my table saw, There was a 1/16" gap under the miter on both sides, I ended up having to use the old bar from the original miter gauge that had broke, I used the Woodstock's slide for a template for the old slide, Drilled and tapped the holes I needed to mount the Woodstock miter gauge to my old slide, I then had to make 2 custom spacer washers for the pivot point screw and the adjuster knob for setting the angles, Now the updated unit sits perfectly flat on the table with no play whatsoever.
Now the Woodstock works great.
