JessEm - Mite-R-Excel Miter Gauge
This JessEM miter gauge is new to the market since the miter gauge review in FWW #165.
Mar 01, 2006
The Mite-R-Excel from JessEm has a head and fence made from heavy-gauge aluminum. Large and small brass locator pins adjust the miter-head setting accurately up to every half degree. You also have the option of setting the angle manually. The steel miter bar has two adjustment mechanisms to provide a slop-free fit in the miter slot. The fence and very solid flip-stop provide for 36 in. of total crosscut capacity, including the sliding fence extension. While I have several excellent miter gauges, I find myself reaching for the JessEm most often.
