From the Rockler's link above, their can do 1 degree increment as well. And if you need a gripper to use this jig then this jig is definitely much more expensive than just $100.

Haha that's a big ass tapering jig you're building here! Mine is like ~10"x30" 1/2" plywood made out of scraps. You could probably use pallet wood, $0 and you get the look! :D

If you don't have a grrripper, you'd want to use some other type of push block for full control of the workpiece.

You need a 2' x 8' piece of 3/4" plywood to build a decent jig for most situations. That's $30.

It is very easy to build your own tapering jig for a table saw. I would not recommend something like this unless you have a very specific usage case for it.

Not sure why this was downvoted. Any woodworker should be able to build one for a few dollars worth of plywood.

Agreed, at least if it had more metal or something, maybe? Also doesn't have hold-down clamps by default. So the "extra" precision it gives is nulled out by your piece wandering around.
