Cursor Added to Incra Stop on Mitre Saw
I guess this might be the best place to post a modification I did on an Incra stop that a fellow forum member has asked to see. It in essence is a cursor with provision for a an LED inside the cursor lens but I have never fitted the LED as I found the cursor good enough and way more easier to read than the original Incra idea of using the side of the stop to sight for measurement. The cursors came from two Kreg flip stops that I had lying around and I have no idea where do get anything similar apart from making one. There is a hole drilled into the blackened end for the LED to be pushed into and the lead from the battery pack is pushed through the cavity in the stop and my intention was to put the battery pack on top of the sliding stop but it is too big and not really needed yet as I don't need glasses to read but for others getting older I can see the need.

This is how the fence is mounted to the bench, it can be removed at any time by simply pulling it our of the white bushings it sits in.

As an aside when I didn't use the LED for the cursor I 3D printed a light holder for my optical punch
