I have the stuff to build one now and found a link to a simple design.
From Woodcraft: www.woodcraft.com/articles.aspx?articleid=343
I hope that is OK to link to that article.
Anyway, it looks as though the fence face is on the side farthest away from the operator.
That is contrary to most examples I have seen. Would this give a better sled in that it would be easier to get the cut started and be more stable sice you would be holding the piece down at the center of the saw instead of trying to push it through from 2 feet away.
It may also make cutting 24" wide stock easier because you can have the outfeed table catching the board through the 2nd half of the cut.
Has anyone build one like this?
Thanks.
