The Truly Universal Shooting Board

I have created what I think is the first truly universal shooting board, one that can shoot miters and bevels at any angle from 90 to less than 45 degrees, separately or in combination.  My new Truly Universal Shooting Board has overall dimensions of 24" L x 18" wide, and is made from PlumaPly, Baltic birch plywood, hardwood for the pivots and other small parts, and UHMW plastic for the pivot bearings.  Most of the parts are made on my CNC, then hand fit to make sure everything works properly.   

The Truly Universal Shooting Board is a follow on from my Almost Universal Shooting Board which can shoot miters from any angle for 90 to less than 45 degrees.  The Truly Universal Shooting Board does everything the Almost Universal Shooting Board can do plus it allows you to shoot bevels from any angle from 90 to less than 45 degrees.   For more information on the Almost Universal Shooting Board, please follow this link:  

For details on the Truly Universal Shooting Board, please look at this slide show.  

All of the accessories available for the Almost Universal Shooting Board (AUSB) also are available for the new, Truly Universal Shooting Board (TUSB).  

2023 Update:  I've updated the materials used in the Universal Shooting Board and added some new features.  It now looks like this.   I moved to Baltic birch plywood for all parts of the body, with Formica on the plane ramps and front/back end caps.  As you can see in the photo, I also have added plane fences as an option, to hold your plane in place.  For those who prefer LV's shooting plane ramps, inserts in the plane ramps are provided for their easy installation. 

I also created a short video of the features and benefits of my Universal Shooting Board.  Just click on the link below.
