| Registered User Forum Geek |  Miter guage not quite square I noticed tonight that the miter guage on my table saw cuts a tiny bit less that square. You have to hold it up to the light with a good square. It can't be more than 1/64 off. How to fix? Steve Bolton |

| Forum Moderator Supreme Forum King  | I would try sanding it. If that doesn't work buy yourself a after market one.

| Registered User Supreme Forum King | Hi SB, I'd do as Brian suggested. It has to be square with the blade. These should be adjustable, a simple turn of a screw.  If however, this doesn't correct the problem, go thru the checklist in your manual. It may sound silly doing so but, you may correct the problem from a simple adjustment that you may have missed. Sometimes it's the simplicity of things that WE miss. I would never sand a miter gauge. If all else fails, you may wish to look into a new miter gauge.Just my $0.02 worth
