A crosscut sled (see Figure 109) is a fantastic
way to improve the safety and accuracy of cross-
cutting on the table saw. most expert table saw
operators use a crosscut sled when they have
to crosscut a large volume of work, because the
sled offers substantial protection against kickback
when crosscutting.

one of the best accessories for improving the
safety and ease of using a table saw is simply
placing a large table (outfeed table) behind the
saw to catch the workpiece (see
Figure 108).
Additionally, another table to the left of the
saw (support table) can also help support large
workpieces so they can be cut safely and accu-
rately.

tables.
