Following are just a few examples of the many
applications you'll discover for your new INCRA Track.
The illustrations represent food for thought and contain
few actual dimensions since your INCRA Track
applications will require dimensions that depend on
your particular tools.

When designing your own applications just remember
the INCRA Track and Shop Stop are the perfect
solution to any cutting or drilling operation that requires
the duplication of multiple stop positions.

APPLICATIONS

FIG. 13

Option #2

Miter gauge

Of course, any miter gauge will allow you to crosscut a
board to length, but for most miter gauges accurately
cutting to length means endless trial and error cutting
that usually leads to mediocre results. Adding an INCRA
Track and Shop Stop to your miter gauge will put an end
to trial and error forever. You'll find your crosscuts not
only accurate, but repeatable as well. For most miter
gauges the easiest mounting will be as shown in Figs.
12 or 13. Note that the wooden mounting bracket
shown in Fig. 12 must be 1

" or less in height. Fig. 14

shows another mounting option where the rear T-slot on
the INCRA Track is raised to align with the holes in your
miter gauge by mounting an auxiliary fence to the front
face.
