I'm a fan of Kreg miter gauges.
I got two. One set up righty, the other lefty.

I have a 1000SE and rarely use it. I used to use it a lot, then I built myself a good crosscut sled. Almost never use my miter gauge anymore.
Can't go wrong with the incra though.

I have the 1000HD, but I rarely use it. It is most useful to me when i am cutting thick stock. It is very accurate and easy to use, though.
I most often reach for my DUBBY!!!! I have the Double Dubby and it is awesome.

+1 on the Dubby. Tried a Incra (can't remember the model.) Way over engineered! Too many parts, fussy set-up. Much happier with my Dubby.

I have a V27 with a 4' incra fence that I use on my sliding table and am very happy with it. I did have to take the uhmw rollers out of it for it to lock into the table right. (only cause of the sliding table) I would like to replace my v27 with the V120 as I have a need for more angle notches.
I love the fence and would like to have them on all my machines.
I also have the DW version of the osborne and with a little shimming of pieces with tiny washers I really like it and use it most of the time.
The 100se is a very good tool and I have used it with no complaints other than the fence was a little short for my needs.

I've got the 1000SE and I love it! However, I had to buy an additional lexan scale oriented opposite from the way the tool is initially sent. It makes reading the scale much easier. It will handle a lot of projects, but you have to reset and re calibrate when you want to switch lefty to righty. I use it with my CM Hybrid.
I also have the smart miter sled from jointech on my Powermatic 66. It's an awesome piece of equipment as it cuts both lefty-righty without having to move it. It extends "way out there" with precision. Worth every penny.

Miter Gauge - Incra 1000SE , 1000HD, or other? OTHER bought the 1000SE and feel for that much money for something that is to be an upgrade at the very least the fence should sit square to the table

I have the 1000HD. The only thing I don't like about it is that it's such a major pain to swap it between right and left. However, I do it so often that I'm actively looking for another miter gauge to either replace the Incra or to set up with each one living permanently on one side.
