The pictures are of a Biesemeyer T-Square Precision Sliding Table. I want to purchase one of these but my emails to Biesemeyer are all returned. Are they still in business? Does anyone know where I can find these online. I have wore Google out looking for one. The model number is B78532.
Thank you

Delta owns the company.
I tried one of these once on a Jet Saw and it would not slide easily in the miter slots. Be aware that these work best with Delta Saws
I have a Delta Unisaw, 5hp. I've made my own sliding or cut off tables for 30 years, I just thought I'd try a store bought model. I got some extra money to blow and I've always wanted one of these. Thanks.
I'm interested in one, too. If you find a source, please post.
If you're looking for a miter sled, Jointech makes one that has a unique design in that it pivots so that the end of the gauge closest to the blade remains at what they call zero clearance. Look at the videos on their sight.http://www.jointech.com/smart_miter.htmIf you are looking for a true sliding table that will give you the capability of cross cutting full sheets of plywood, and depending on your budget, look at the Laguna Tools attachment for the Delta Unisaw:http://www.lagunatools.com/sliding_table.htm
Delta has owned bies for many years. Delta Model 36-205

Happy Hunting - try googling that.
If you see the pictures in my original post you will see that the Delta sliding table Model 25-205 is just not the same thing I am looking for. I'm guessing that it is just not made anymore. The girl that does the Freeform Furniture show on DIY has one on her table saw and uses it all the time. I have contacted the show to see where they got theirs but they never answered my email.
My bad, sorry. Delta cut that out of the lineup several years ago. I'd take pictures to a local welding shop, and let them fab one up if you aren't into making one yourself. Its an easy design, and any copetent metal shop could make all the parts you are looking for.
I think that they stopped making it. I bought one from a guy who had it NIB stuck in a corner and I really like it!

What's distinctive about the sled you're looking for? That is, why not build your own?
They stopped making it years ago as well as the table saw miter sled.
. Making your own is a good practice. It will hone your skills and isn't any harder than making a basic piece of furniture. There tons of plans on the web and in magazine over the last 30 years and just seeing a picture should be enough to go on. As with any jig the application should suggest many possibilities.
Jessem came out with a sliding table too and based upon the mitre gauge of theirs I have i can say they make great products (canadian too). http://www.jessem.com
