The Original Dubby Cut-Off • Cross Cut Sled for Cutting Precise Accurate Miters with a Table Saw (Left Side Dubby Sled)

Best tool in the shop

Good to have a nice sled work ok so far

The product and Peachtree did perfect. The Dubby is a great product! Everything packed carefully, works like a charm. Amazon messed up communication and tracking from their logistics delivery causing much frustration and Amazon help was no help at all.

I first saw the Dubby Crosscut Sled demonstrated at the Milwaukee Woodworking Show somewhere around early 2000's. I held off buying until now when my frustration at building a dead-on miter sled for making picture frames boiled over. This thing is a gem. If you take the time to carefully set it up you will cut dead-on accurate miters. It's well worth the money.

Had a previous model (close to 20 years old). Gota new table saw and decided to upgrade to a new Dubby with the aluminum fence. Greatly improved an already goo product. Instructions a little confusing at times but manageable. If you are consistently cutting a lot of odd angles, this is your tool!

After assembling the Dubby, I found the table to be seriously warped - both sides turned up around the miter bar. I tracked down a 1/2" metal strap (1/8" thick x 12" long) and screwed it to the sled table on the back and front to straighten it out. That worked although it should not have been necessary.I then went to cut my first panel and noticed it rocked against the fence. At first I thought it was my panel, but upon a closer look the panel edge appeared straight. So I placed a straight edge against the fence and it turned out to be bowed by about 1/8" end to end. After several hours of sanding/checking the aluminum fence I finally achieved a straight edge.This sled is not confidence inspiring - I now use it with hesitation and check it for accuacy every time I use it. Disapointing since I depend on an accurate sled to cut my panels square.

With the addition of some of my own modifications it works great. I put a replaceable wooden extension at the end of the aluminum guide, added a hold-down clamp to the top of the guide, added another baseplate for the other side of the saw blade and a bridge to connect the two sides. I have the accuracy cut down to .00019 of an inch on a 17 inch cut! Great for segmented turning and straight crosscuts. Pictures of my setup are shown below.

Where has this been all my life. The angle increments are so far apart given the placement on the tool that it enables one to confidently dial in fractions of degrees. Very easy to adjust. The guide bar for repeatable cuts is beautifully designed and is a feature I under appreciated until I started using the tool regularly. Makes me into a better woodworker. Watch the videos by the owner Jerry on YouTube. Would buy again in a heart beat.
