You means the mitre slide that fits into the mitre slot?

would I try Woodfast or are they generic (ebay) or get a better quality one elsewhere?

Depending on size you should probably be able to purchase one from a 3rd party one either on like or from a WW tool store.

haha I did mention seniors moment, mitre slide I knew that .

thanks BobL

just come in to say, thingy, is the most useful word...

it can be noun, verb, adjective, subject, object, gender neutral... oh and it doesnt offend anyone lol

but we all know what it is when you put it into context

Kiwis think alike...thanks

Check the size of the table slot before going looking for one. If you are lucky and it is the standard 3/4'' then your table saw thingy may fit.

There's standards?

Freaky freaky....
ranting to an old neighbour about this narrow guide and he smiles...."come with me young Tony," he says...cheeky sod is 10 years older than me... lo and behold 10 minutes scratching around his man cave we find a mitre gauge that fits and works.

Id swear its off a Woodfast bandsaw, but he has no idea where its from.
Thankyou Farter Christmas.
