Woodworking Tip #8: Anti-Skid Miter Gauge

Coat a piece of 400 grit sandpaper with spray adhesive, stick it to your miter gauge(s) and trim the excess sandpaper off with a razor blade.  The sandpaper provides just the right amount of resistance to prevent the workpiece from slipping left or right and gives a surprising amount of security to your grip.  You won't even find yourself renewing this anti-skid mat very often as the sandpaper really does no sanding.
