Ron Stewart commented about 3 hours ago new Lots of angles there. I’m sure you know exactly how you’re going to build your taper jigs and crosscut sleds, but I thought I’d mention two things.
Awhile back, I made a MatchFit 3-in-1 jig (https://www.microjig.com/post/3-in-1-tall-fence-jointing-sled-tapering-jig). I put a runner on mine, so it’s a 2-in-1 jig (no tall-fence capability). I’ve found it useful for making angled cuts. It’s easy to position the two L-shaped stops to enable repeatable cuts. It might work for your tapers.
I also just finished building a crosscut sled with removable bottom/fence inserts (tool-free) for different angles. I’m a few days away from posting it, but I can PM you a mostly-complete SU model if you’re interested.
Hi Ron. I will take a look a the MatchFit jig as a general-purpose tapering jig. For this project, I went with dedicated tapering jigs just because it was simpler to throw them together than pausing the project to build a more general purpose tapering jig. I think I'll get better repeatability this way if I end up making multiples.
I'm interested to see your take on the crosscut sled. I'm sure it's going to be more refined than what I did. Since I've already built and used mine, I'm not in need of the SU model now, but thanks for the offer. I'll look forward to seeing your post.
