Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best thing since sliced bread for an old Craftsman saw
This Incra mitre gauge is money well spent. It is ruggedly built, heavy with no slop and it's accurate. No regrets.I have an old Craftsman 10" $99 special with the worse than useless mitre gauge & 5/8" slot. I couldn't afford a new saw with a 3/4" slot so I took my Dremmel and a bastard file and converted the slots to 3/4". Not a 100% perfect but beats the heck out of what I had.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Affordable accuracy
I wanted a simple and totally accurate miter gauge to compliment the more finicky sliding table on my old Ryobi. Looked at them all and thought this would do the trick, and it does.

Reviewers have mentioned that the adjustment system Incra uses is accurate, but difficult to adjust out to a wider than normal width slot. One even used heat to get that extra little bit.

The adjustments are done with a bevelled little allen wrench screw which tightens down onto a plastic washer that has a slot cut in it. As you tighten the screw down, it forces the washer to expand out and it then all fits nice and tight. There are four of these adjustments, one being hidden under the handle (it is easy to access per the directions).

The problem is that you really have to bear down with the tiny provided allen wrench and even when I put a drop of oil on it, it simply was 'way too stiff and was obviously going to break something. Hmmm, what to do? I was going to grab my wife's hair dryer, but I tried this first and it worked: simply loosen the screw a hair, put a little slotted screwdriver in the washer slot and pry on it as you tighten the screw. This takes the pressure off the screw and makes it easy. It slides very nicely with no play. I did all this adjusting while the gauge was in the slot and that worked perfectly.

The V27 does not come with a fence, so you have to either buy an aluminum one or make a wooden one. I would have gotten the Incra 1000se which comes with an extendable fence and a stop, very nice, but my sliding table had this feature and so the simple V27 got a wooden one.

I found a piece of quality ply (it is really hard to find an absolutely straight board) and made an 18" fence and used contact cement to glue on a longboard strip of 100 grit sandpaper. Note that the holes/slots in the V27 are really pretty big, so you either have to use a typical short screw with washers, or find some short screws with big heads to make it nice and neat.

In the end, the this set-up slides nicely without wobble and is totally accurate. It is easy to change angles and the more common ones are provided for. The wooden fence with the sandpaper is nice and secure. This is my first fence with a sandpaper surface and it is soooo much better, really secures your work without the grip of death you need on slippery fences.

The mounting part is bent heavy gauge metal, not something more exotic like machined aluminum. There was some concern over this, that it might flex. This hasn't been a problem for me. My fence would bend before the metal part would.

Three stars because the adjustment screw thing is too hard. Bigger screws would be better, or some sort of bevelled bolt. The sliding bar should be longer so that the the device can be pulled back more on saws with smaller tables. Also, when the device is pulled back so that the handle part is off the table, it tips out of slots that are not the T type. And, if it clears the table edge, there is a step under the adjustment end that requires lifting up so that it slides onto the table. Why not make it all level and smooth underneath?

Despite the annoyances noted, and they are annoying on something that is not exactly cheap, the V27 is still the best miter gauge I could find in that price range. For no more extras cost, Incra could improve this device, but I wouldn't wait for this. It does work as it is and I still recommend it.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Dead on Accurate
I've used this miter gauge for at least three years now and it is dead on accurate and easy to use. I also believe that Incra has the best miter bar on the market. No slop, slides easily and never seems to need adjusting. If you don't need a fancy fence then you won't regret purchasing this one.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Nicely made
This is a quality miter. You can't go wrong having one (or more, to allow you to build up jigs).


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Yes,Please!
Do yourself a favor and remove,replace or retire your O.E.M. miter gauge with a inexpensive high quality/ accurate Incra V27 miter gauge that has has adjustable miter bar to totaly eliminate slop. It is a great all around miter gauge to be used on your table saw, shaper,router table, you won't be dissapointed.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Nice miter, recomend
I would recommend this for accurate cuts like on picture frames etc. I think it needs the fence extension to make it perfect & real nice to use, just my 2 cents worth.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A+++++++++
a 100000000 better and more accurate than the plastic Dewalt that shipped with my $700 saw !!!
The best upgrade I did.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The reviews are not Enough!
The reviews do not do this tool justice! It came today, got it un-packed and on my Jet 14 Inch Bandsaw in 5 minutes. Very heavy duty plated steel, finished nicely and the best part was the Made in USA label. Way to go! Now I need one for my table saw...


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - No slop
The miter gauge fit tight and snug right out of the box. The only movement is back and forth, no more side to side.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Two
I own two of these, one for the table saw and the other does double duty between my router table and sanding station. I could not find a better miter gauge for the money and neither will you. Very accurate and easy to set up and use.
