gfretw,

I agree with you on the use of "quick and dirty" sled for small pieces.
I've made many cuts confidently and quickly using this approach. One
of my sleds has a sheet of 400 grit sand paper glued to it. I'll place
the piece on top of the sandpaper and hold it in place with a GRRipper
or my hand, depending on the size of the piece.
