Need a miter saw stop / cursor system

Featured Replies

I'm looking for a t track with a stop and scale with cursor to add to a miter saw station.   The Kreg looks good, but to put the three pieces together, it's running about $85 for the three parts that don't seem to be in a kit, but purchased separately.   Anyone  have a system they use and like?

Here's  the first one tried before going to what's worked in shops for years....

I made that back piece wth the ruler about 6" high and, made a saddle and tightening knob for it. Its the stop. My saw is mounted so it never moves. So, the tape on the back piece is always accurate. 

I used a track, then made my own stop block.  To make a cut I mark beforehand, don't use a measuring tape on this rig but one could be added.

We could never find any accuracy from tall miter stops. After 50-100 cabinet door parts there would be irregularities to the sizes.  If the miter stops weren't  to the inner corner they always flexed.....
