Default Shop Made Coping Sled Plans

Here's a coping sled that is totally modifiable. The design document has a few options that can be incorporated if desired. It's very detailed and was created with MS VISIO. I also have it saved as a MS Word doc. The WORD file seems to be too large to upload. It's 822kb (394 zipped) The VISIO file is 333kb.

Given that your file sizes are found to be too big for this site, is there another site that you can upload them to? Then, you could just provide Links to them.

Nice sled.

I made one like that, but I had a few problems. If the base is 3/4" thick the sled is solid and stable, but I needed to use the xtreme collet extension to get the reach, and then I get vibrations.

If I use a 1/4" base the clamp distorts the base and the workpiece twists a bit.

I finally made one without a base and clamp but with the front fence that holds the workpiece.

It works fine.
