This was a common and popular miter gauge that was provided with almost all of the Craftsman tables saws in the 113 series including the 113.299xxx and 113.298xxx table saws. Most of these saws in the 113 series were made by Emerson Electric Co. for Sears under the Craftsman brand. This was a solid, accurate and well made miter gauge.

I’m a former woodshop teacher, cabinet and furniture maker, and avid tool collector. I’ve been collecting antique woodworking tools and restoring old Craftsman and Delta machines for almost forty years. I love the quality of the old Delta, Craftsman, Walker Turner, and other woodworking machinery from the 1940s through the ’70s. They just don’t make tools like that anymore and no one is going to be restoring woodworking tools purchased at big box stores fifty years from now.
