With a comfortable, oversized grip that gives you sure control over the process, the DELTA 34-928 Deluxe Table Saw Miter Gauge is designed for extreme accuracy. This heavy-duty gauge fits table saws with 3/8 x 3/4 inch miter grooves and features a guide bar that can be adjusted to fit the miter slot with minimum tolerances. It also includes positive stops at all common angles. An included washer keeps the gauge from tipping when extended past the front of the table for when it's used with saws that have T-slot miter grooves.

Delta table saw miter gauge
»
Delta makes a fine product. I am mostly happy with it. The needle pointing to the degree mark is removed from the scale by about 1/8 to 1/4 inch, so the reading is hard to see precisely. My older Delta gauge, which wore out after about 16 years of use, had a better pointer and scale so that it was easier to get an accurate reading. The pointer was right on the scale.

Corrected a problem with my old saw
»
The miter tracks in my old saw were worn to the point where my miter gauge no longer stayed true. The Delta miter gauge uses simple allen adjusters that compensate for the wear. After milling the saw table tracks so they were true, but slightly oversized is no longer a problem. I adjusted the miter gauge screws for a snug fit and I'm back in business. The gauge is beefy and has a "good feel". It's doesn't have laser cut stops or any high-tech features. I always double check my angles with a protractor, no matter what gauge I'm using. This is a good, simple, well-made, easy to set-up and use basic gauge. It does exactly what it's designed to do.

A Grate upgrade!
»
I have been using this gauge for about 4 months and am very happy with it. It is fast to set up with very easy to make adjustments IF needed. Right out of the box mine was set to a perfect 90 and 45. The guage has a bigger head than all of my older guages which makes for Excellent support for any cut. The VERY minor things I have had to tweak are the slippery face of the head which was very easy to fix by adding shelf stick sand paper and putting a small amount of thread locker on one of the miter slot adjustment screws to keep it from backing out and allowing the guage to wiggle in the table slot. You can adjust this guage to fit worn table slots to a Perfect no slop slide which we all know makes for the best cut. This guage dose not like the sudden stop from a dive off the top of my saw but what ones do? If you have or get one that wants to test gravity check the settings before you make a cut that really counts! I think the small screws that hold the adjustment plate in place under the head are not rated for the 3 foot drop test, putting the guage back to square is simple enough though. If Delta made a add-on fence this guage would be right up there with the other Best guages.

Replacement for Broken Miter Gage
»
This purchase was intended to simply replace a broken unit. It is, however, a substantial upgrade from the stock unit that Delta supplied with my saw. Adjustment to all frequently used settings is both very fast and very accurate, and the working gage surface is nicely machined and large enough to provide adequate support (and control) for any of my typical workpieces. Good unit!
