If you cut too far on one boss or the other when aligning the mitre,
it may be shimmed back up with HD fabric or vinyl tape. This would be
done so that the top mounting screw registers properly - the
clearances on my holes are pretty tight.


Couldn't you have made the screw hole a slot in the angle piece? Then it
wouldn't matter so much if you took off too much plus it would likely be
easier to make up other angle jigs that fit the sled too. (Unless I
don't quite understand the way the parts of the jig work together.)

Tips fer Turnin': Pour your end-grain sealer into a clean, wide-mouth
clothes detergent bottle. The lid makes a handy dipping container for
your brush and the leftovers will drain back into the bottle when you
recap the jug.
