Got a few things done this weekend

Not as much as I had hoped but the kitchen is essentially done before the chilly weather hits and I can't work outside.

Finishing required I make a better tapering jig.  You'll notice 2 holes on the left side.  This allows me to move hold-downs for wider or narrower material.

The miter sled is really, really close to perfect.  The right/rear post was made adjustable.  When I cut two corners on it they seem perfect with the try square.  But when I do 4 in sequence there is a bit of an error on the 4th corner.  it seems to be off by such a small degree, perhaps just an 8th of a degree.  Perhaps I'll just give in and modify it to the complementary angle version.  As close as it is, that might work.  Still, I like things the way they ought to be.
