Get Precise 90° Table Saw Cuts With The EXACT-90 Miter Gauge | Woodpeckers Woodworking Tools
EXACT-90 MITER GAUGE: https://www.woodpeck.com/exact-90-miter-gauge.html
No matter how cleverly engineered a table saw might be, it always seems like the miter gauge was an after-thought. The ones that come with new saws are typically barely usable, and most after-market miter gauges assume the miter slots in the tables are straight and uniform (spoiler alert: they’re not). So, our engineers set out to develop a new type of miter gauge. A miter gauge that reliably performs the one job woodworkers need most from it, a perfectly square cut. And, they made sure it can make that cut regardless of how sloppy the machining of the miter slot. Introducing Woodpeckers Exact-90 Miter Gauge.

Does the miter gauge have some type of runners on the bottom to help it slide smoothly?
Looks great. Exact 90 degrees is what i cut most of the time, so kudos for that! One concern I have is with the nylon springs. How long will those hold up? I don’t have good experience with nylon as it ages. It tends to crack and break as it ages. And many of us have our shops in garages which may become very hot or cold with seasonal changes. What kind of guarantee will you have on those and will replacements be available. I would rather see spring steel for that application. Also, I see that it comes with a sacrificial fence, but you are not using one? Does the stop and extension work with it? Thanks for the demo!
$270 and doesn’t ship until December 2021…no thanks.
Looks like a nice tool, the extendable fence is a welcome feature. Question: does the bottom of the red aluminum plate have a thin plastic layer to keep both the miter gauge and saw table from getting all scratched up from the repeated sliding back and forth?
yup imma gonna need to get that bad for for my SawStop 😁
You need to make the fence measurements either black or red as the numbers and marks don’t standout (easy to read)
I like the concept. The length of the bar adding capacity is a great feature. I use a seperate miter sled for frames. Not having to lug my heavy sled on and off the table is another attractive feature. My biggest concern with the design is the bars nylon take up’s. If this doesnt work as designed, out goes the precision. Need to put my hands on one before I consider buying.
I will place an order right now 🙈 I want it but I may not need it now, 😅 but I’m going to order it. 🤷♂️
You have great products but your lead time is ridiculous . I am waiting 6 months for my order
Great extra device.
Do you carry one for the Dewalt job site table saw?
1:11 There is no reason ever on any saw or any router table in any universe, for a miter gauge to be aligned and calibrated to anything else than the miter slot it rides in, because math. If the blade is not parallell to the miter slot, you have problems, but the solution is not to calibrate the miter gauge to the blade, ever. That is why a this fixed miter gauge actually makes perfect sense. Adjustment should be used to achieve perpendicularity of the fence to the slot, nothing else. What this product really needs to be, is a square. A dead on 90′ square between fence and runner. Any calibration, is just to return to being square.
How do you zero out the measuring tape if you need to keep a gap between the blade and fence?
I just want two of those guides so I can make my own sled!!
Those guides would be perfect for a cross cut sled.
wish there would have been a set up portion to this video. showing us how you line it up and get it accurate
I would consider it if it had an incremental stop similar to Incra For now, I’ll take the miter bar.
one would presume that "exact 90" can only be as "exact" as the parallelism of one’s miter slot to the blade. Let’s hope we can get THAT adjustment "exact". (I see some Woodpeckers support calls coming…)
Thats cool…….now go make my track saw parallel guides! LOL. I’m so ready to get those things. I’ve got projects I need them for. Got rid of my table saw until I’m in a shop where I can get a very big table saw. Running everything off of my mega mft and track saw set up.
I have an old craftsman 315.218050 10 in saw and the slots are 5/8” wide..does this fit? I can’t even find the replacement ryobi part anymore.
I want one! I use a jobsite saw for space concerns and this seems like it’ll be a good fit to save space since I dont have a crosscut sled. Which brings up my question: How is this different/better than a cross cut sled? genuinely curious.
Interesting… the incra I have is 90 AND all other angles.
How close does it get to the blade? I’d be worried about tripping my sawstop
Will this work on a Shopsmith Mark 7?
I have several Woodpecker tools, but this won’t be one of them. I have no problem achieving a PERFECT 90° on my Powermatic miter gauge (or any adjustable gauge for that matter). It’s the remaining degrees that can be a bugger! 🤣
Waiting for 6 months and the price, which is half the cost of my saw, is prohibitive. What I don’t understand is that Woodpecker’s keep coming out with new products with ridiculous lead times and yet even basic rulers are backordered already. My shop runs on those basic rulers and squares, every day, all day. To see them go on backorder for a month or more, and then see this tool come out makes no sense to me. I love the products. I depend on them.
270 BUCKS ON SALE??? yeh right, not with me matey 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So will the fence be available with metric scale or just imperial?
Now this one I NEED!
as a Woodpecker fan (my friends envy my RED tools), i find this a bit pricey for a single (90) angle tool….i have the Incra Miter1000/HD that gives perfect 90° cuts on my saw and offers EXACT cuts at any angle….not questioning the precision, just the price….
Really? Your miter gauge is way behind what’s available from other sources, particularly the Harvey/Bridge City miter gauge.
The flip stop’s fine adjustment has a known flaw and Woodpeckers has yet to fix it. The adjustment knob turns by itself as you flip the stop up and down, so its position can no longer be trusted.
Edit: I was wrong. It has been fixed.
