I have used cross cut sleds and miter sleds for many years but never had a bevel cutting sled. Bevel cutting sled does the same job as miter sled. However, the length of miter sled cut is limited to the height of table saw blade, while a bevel sled cut is limited only by the size of the sled.

Found the bevel sled made it easy to make a mitred corner box that went together clean and square.

Properties of this sled that contribute to precise cuts:
1. Fence on the miter sled was calibrated by 5-cut method to get it dead square to the blade.
2. Stops on the miter sled fence ensure that the length of box pieces are exactly the same.
3. Clamps on both fences keep the material flat on the base during the cut.
4. Tight fitting UHMW runner eliminates any play between the sled and saw table.

What I'm looking for is a click making sled.

I'm confused. Why not just use your rip fence?

Are you going to participate in this group or is this click bait?

For picture frames I use a gauge similar to this one.

Rockler 45 Degree Miter Sled
https://www.rockler.com/45-degree-miter-sled

With mine I extended the bar so that he thead was in the middle so I
could just flip it end to end to cut the other side of the corner. Also
add a 2" X 14" X 1"of piece of maple attach to the face of the head to
extend the support for the piece being cut.

With oposite sides of the frame Exactly the same lenght, I get perfect
mitered corners.

For a cost of $19.99 it is not worth my time o build one myself4

While I never have had a need for it Rockler has ar 22.5° Miter Sled
https://www.rockler.com/rockler-225-miter-sled

If you are doing a lot of different angles you may like the
Rockler Perfect Miter Setup Blocks

https://www.rockler.com/rockler-perf...r-setup-blocks


All of these would be easier to store that the type in the video.

I use Dubby for angles on panels. Individual degree settings are about
1/4" apart so it is very accurate.

I go a pair, left and right, about 20 years ago.

I'm confused. Why not just use your rip fence?

Many advantages in using bevel sled over rip fence to cut bevels:
1. It would be dangerous to use the rip fence, to cut a bevel, on the end of a long narrow piece, as would be typical in making a box. The bevel sled makes this cut safe.
2. The bevel sled makes the cut perpendicular to the edge against the sled fence.
3. The bevel sled allows clamping down, of the piece to be cut, so that the cut is accurate even if the piece has a slight warp.
4. The bevel sled allows two flip stops so that sides and ends of box can be cut without changing set up.

Hope this helps

Nope. No help at all.
