    What is a Miter Slot Table for?

    It was in the box of the "free" stuff that I got with the saw. I just don't know what it is for. Thanks.

    It's so you can use conventional table saw jigs. Crosscut sled, tenioning jigs, miter sleds etc...Pat

        Sometimes we overlook the obvious, did you look in your owners manual?

          Do you mean the one that came with it in the "free" stuff? I looked there and the saw manual. I will search again though. You are probably correct.

              Check here for some great jigs. Most use the miter slot as a guide.
