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.
My "Scrap bin" channel:
/ ibuilditscrapbin
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.

John, you are my favourite woodworker to observe and emulate. Always a no-nonsense blend of practicality and beautiful results without resorting to thousands of dollars of specialty tools. Your shop is an absolute work of art that has been a pleasure to watch develop over the years. The hours you put into planning, filming, executing and editing these projects is very much appreciated by this guy.

I know there's other videos out there showing their shop built tools but I enjoy watching all of yours because you are very detailed and don't sound like a robot lol. Thank you for posting this video because I've been needing to make 1 and now i know how to.

The whole time I was watching this video, I was thinking, “How is this going to replace a miter saw?” Then I got to the end and thought, “How is this going to replace a miter saw?” Perhaps this should have been titled “Throw Away Your Miter GAUGE”? Thoroughly enjoyable video, though, and as always, some really good ideas.

I make so many mistakes in my own work and always find ways to adapt and overcome as you did, but it's easy to get down on myself sometimes when that happens. It's always helpful to remember that one doesn't become as skilled as you without making plenty of mistakes and figuring out how to repair them. Thank you for sharing.

Also i got a used incra from a retiring woodworker, it needed tweaking since it had abuse. John you should make plans for this. I love your plans, so clear and well engineered. Your small toolbox is next.

The concept is sound. I Like IT! I will use the concept and make it! Yet, I have found most "Framing Squares" used in general construction are notoriously NOT really square. Verifying the final cut with the caliper or even the caliper and the "5 Cut Method" without spending upwards of $500 for the gold anodized commercial instrument. And making it DIY, knowing how to adjust it to the tolerance we desire. More Valuable!

I purchased a new table saw of much higher quality than I've owned in the past and it came with a miter gauge like this thaylt works super well and is very accurate, so I had the thought of getting rid of my miter saw.... The next day, I was cutting 8ft and 10ft boards on the miter saw and decided to keep it... But I could also just cut those with a square and a circular saw. And still free up the space. Ultimately, out of laziness more than anything, the miter saw is right where it has been for several years now... But.... I made a frame for a mirror recently out of some birds eye maple that I didn't deem worth enough for an instrument, and I knew automatically the table saw would cut the miters better. And it did, and the frame came out great because of the accuracy of the table saw with the miter slide. So really I need to get rid of the miter station probably.... one day...

John, I really like the creativity and engineering you put into your projects. I especially like the shop made tools. I’ve thought of making my own, but I already have really good tools, so maybe I’ll spend my energy on other projects. I was surprised that you chose to use plastic knobs on this project in lieu of wooden ones I’ve seen you have on other projects. Not criticizing, just surprised. Love your channel. I watch every new episode and I’m catching up the ones you made before I found your channel. P.S. Have you ever made a drum or wide belt panel sander? I don’t have one of those yet.
