What's Hot?

Head has a vernier scale for setting angles down to 1/10º and a screw-in brass detent pin giving precise stops at 0, 10, 15, 22-1/2, 30, 45, 60, and 90º
The fence includes as standard a pre-made sacrificial fence, a micro-adjust flip-stop, and a standard flip-stop
Precision machined nickel plated steel miter bar has five adjustable nylon set screws for a perfect fit in the miter slot (also supplied with a spare set)
Extremely solid construction

What's Not?

Screw-in brass detent pin slows down adjustments (but you're only talking seconds)

Bottom Line The Woodhaven 4911K Miter Gauge is a good all-round performer and whilst lacking the number of detents of some of the Incra models it features precise stops at all the common angles of 0, 10, 15, 22-1/2, 30, 45, 60, and 90º. It also comes with a vernier scale for setting angles down to 1/10º between stops. The steel miter bar has five adjustable nylon set screws for a perfect fit in the miter slot (also supplied with a spare set) and the fence includes as standard a pre-made sacrificial fence, a micro-adjust flip-stop, and a standard flip-stop. The Woodhaven 4911K Miter Gauge retails at $169
