The one shortcoming of my disk sander is the sloppy miter gauge that came with it. To solve that problem, I made a series of hardwood, pre-set miter gauges at 90°, 45°, 30° and 22.5°. I screwed the angled section of the gauges to the hardwood guide that slides in the miter track. If the guide becomes worn, it's a snap to replace them.
