These days, you can spend $50 just in the wood to build a sled though. This one is a circular saw sled which seems a bit dumb to me.

Good price on the K5. Much bigger fan of the K4 and K5 than the new models but maybe that's because I'm a creature if habit.

And I always thought you had to make a cross-cut station from scratch. I'd buy this at the full price $60.

I feel like if you're a hobbyist woodworker working with a table saw, it's kind of a right of passage to make a crosscut sled. If you're a contractor or shop you probably are going for fast and now, which this fits the bill for. People do I guess prioritize their time differently and may want to just get out in the shop making things instead of shop tools. Smilie

I have a speed square, so why do I need a circular saw crosscut jig?

I'm tempted by the k5. Thanks Op!

Crosscut jig is for making clean and fast 90 and 45 cuts across boards with a push saw. Pockethole jig makes pocket holes with a drill to for shelves and cabinets.

The type of woodworking you do influences tools you may need. Hand tool and purists do not like them. These are good for beginners and people who want to make things fast. But if you want things to last decades or longer traditional joinery or dominos are the way to go

If you do enough projects and save scraps, there is likely enough in the bin to make one for free

I made my own using some scraps but I'm thinking of picking up the crosscut here anyway because I felt like redoing mine to add some clamp channels but this is making me feel lazy since they are already built in and clamps included. Mine isn't bad, it's square and gets the job done. I used a parts of a bedframe I found on the street lol. BUT had to cut a small piece once and couldnt hold it down tight enough and it wobbled and kicked back. Didn't think I needed the clamps until that moment haha.

Have you tried toggle clamps? I have seen people attach them to a piece of scrap and screw it to the sled. The purposes are for small and thin pieces or repeatability

Why dumb?

If you need to cut miters for picture frames this is a great alternative to a miter saw.

The Kreg 720PRO (without the screw kit ) is $125 at Woot. https://tools.woot.com/offers/kre...cnt_wp_0_6

According to Amazon, I bought the SK03 screw kit for $21 a year ago.
