This is an Unboxing and Assembly of the Flagship Table Saw Sled part 1 Main Sled.
Part 2 will cover the Attachments.
FLAGSHIP CROSSCUT SLED Does it all! It cuts miters, bevels, compound angles, Dadoes, Rabbets, Picture Frames and More! Features both bottom and back fence- removable zero clearance inserts! Plus it works for both left & right tilting saws with no modifications!
(these make it quicker and easier to lay out holes, but they are definitely not needed. It will help guarantee accuracy if you are concerned) note: Templates are NOT sold separately, they are only sold with plans)
We decided to design a new sled that would function just as well as the old one but would also be HALF THE WEIGHT!
We liked that we could switch between thin kerf and dado blades without having to build a whole new sled, but rather than having to remove and replace the zero clearance insert every time we change blades, we designed it to move them to accommodate the blade thickness.
We also thought about the different sleds we use and incorporated some of those uses into this sled. So, instead of having a large and cumbersome sled just for making picture frames, this sled has an attachment to make picture frames perfectly. And, instead of a separate sled for cutting accurate angles we have incorporated an attachment that will do the same thing.
The movable zero clearance inserts can also be moved to allow the blade to be tilted to cut bevels. And, it accommodates both left and right tilting saws.

Love how you stamped all the part names on the parts.
-
Just watched your build video, then this one showed up and it didnt take but 1 minute for me to order it when i realized you are selling them!! Thank you!! Im anxiously waiting for it now!!
-
I have one of these! I assembled of course. Doing it today. “Everything that affects accuracy we have done for you” was music to my ears.
-
It really shows how much time and effort you put into the plans and assembling the product! It's all the little details that really matter, labeling each individual part, highlighting them different colors in the instructions.
-
Thanks for putting this together. Can't wait for the second video to complete my sled!
-
Im so glad you made this video, I'll definitely refer back to it when I assemble mine. Thank you
-
I wished my small contractor table saw was big enough for this awesome sled! Well manufactured, and an awesome prduct for sure!
-
Glad to see these are shipping again! I'm anxiously awaiting for mine to arrive!!
-
Mine was delivered today!! This weekend I will assemble. Very well packed. The exterior of the box looked rough, the contents were is perfect shape!
-
Great to see a big shipment ready to go out. Hope one of those was my order. Can’t wait. 😊!!
-
Looks like a good kit.
-
Another great video! Thanks

Received my table saw sled kit and half the fun was the assembly. I watched the video and followed along. Took me a bit longer (over a period of two days) than it took James - but I wanted to make sure I was doing it correctly - glued parts are hard to correct. Slides nice on my smaller Craftsman table saw. I need to figure out how to attach the ruler tape measure since I did not see instructions on that. Beautiful design and I think it will do everything I had in mind for a table saw sled to do. The assembly video has usage ideas at the end.

How in the hell did you get so damn smart? It seems your woodworking skills are endless and incredible. Super impressed, super inspiring and super interesting ❤
-
Thank you James. This was very helpful! Looking forward to Part 2.
-
Very nice. Congratulations, you have placed yourself above the competition. I don't know of anyone else who has offered more than just plans, but then you always did do it a little differently than them!
-
Mine should arrive today! Thanks much for this help.
-
Wow. Stamping the parts is top notch.
-
James you did an excellent job with the table saw sled. I like the way you put it together. Australia.

1. Love James passion and skill. This is the channel i am constantly turning to for plans/jigs/tips etc 2. Thought the $100 would have been better given to the first customers who took a punt on buying this sled 3. This video and plans should have been produced prior to the first sleds being shipped. Admittedly I did struggle in putting it together and have not finished it even though i've had the sled for a few months now (also coupled with injury that prevented me doing anything in the shop for a couple of months) 4. Could I please get a set of the set-up plans you show in this video 5. When is Part 2 coming out? Despite a couple of criticisms above, keep up the great work. You really are "the guru of woodworking" in my eyes
