Sliding sled for cutting precision segments on a band saw

A band saw table for use with a band saw blade in a cutting plane, the band saw table having a miter slot, the band saw table comprising:

• a rail system comprising:
• an anchor bar fixed in the miter slot with at least one anchor mechanism to removably secure the anchor bar in the miter slot and prevent movement of the anchor bar relative to the band saw table;
• a guide rail connected to the anchor bar and positioned parallel to the anchor bar;
• a sliding sled comprising:
• a flat plate mounted on the guide rail, the flat plate having a top side, a bottom side, and a front edge parallel to the guide rail;
• a first adjustable guide fence connected to the top side of the flat plate at a first fixed pivot end of the first adjustable guide fence, wherein the first adjustable guide fence is adjustable about the first fixed pivot end to create a first oblique angle relative to the front edge of the flat plate;
• a first locking fastener connected to the first adjustable guide fence to releasably fix the first oblique angle of the first adjustable guide fence;
• a second adjustable guide fence connected to the top side of the flat plate at a second fixed pivot end of the second adjustable guide fence, wherein the second adjustable guide fence is adjustable about the second fixed pivot end to create a second oblique angle relative to the front edge of the flat plate;
• a second locking fastener connected to the second adjustable guide fence to releasably fix the second oblique angle of the second adjustable guide fence;
• and
• multiple bearings connected to the bottom side of the sliding sled for connecting to the guide rail and allow the sliding sled to move on top of and along the guide rail parallel to the cutting plane.

A band saw table with a device mountable in the band saw table with a cutting plane, the band saw table having a table length along the cutting plane and a miter slot that is parallel to the cutting plane, the device comprising:

• an anchor bar fixed in the miter slot with at least one anchor mechanism to removably secure the anchor bar in the miter slot and prevent movement of the anchor bar relative to the band saw table,
• a guide rail connected to the anchor bar, wherein the guide rail is parallel to the anchor bar;
• and
• a sliding sled slidably engaged on the guide rail for movement along the guide rail in a direction parallel to the cutting plane, the sliding sled comprising:
• a first adjustable guide fence with a first fixed pivot end connected to the sliding sled, the first adjustable guide fence is adjustable between various oblique angles relative to the cutting plane;
• and
• a second adjustable guide fence with a second fixed pivot end connected to the sliding sled, the second adjustable guide fence is adjustable between various oblique angles relative to the cutting plane.
