So I'm finally (I know, don't kill me) building my first panel sled after

7
years of wwing. I've found different plans on the web thanks to all of

you,
and I've settled on a design for 2 sleds, one straight and one with a

mitre.
I have a few questions though if ya don't mind.

1. Does it make sense to have 2 different sleds, one for large panels and
the other for smaller stuff? Idea being I'd like to have something really
large for helping with sheet goods. Not insanely large mind you.

2. If I make a large panel sled, is there anything I can do to the bottom
of the sled to make it slide easily on the TS?
