Osborne vs Incra 1000 - Randy C - 11-18-2017
If you could pick either one of these miter gauges which one do you think is better? There is only about a $10 difference in price on Amazon so that is not a consideration, I just want to get the best gauge and I don't know which one to get
Thanks

I have two INCRA miter gauges but not an Osborne, so I guess I'm no help.

I have the Incra V27 and the Osborne. In my case, neither make a perfect cut at the angle indicated, but the Osborne is closer. At this point, I would not give up either one; both are great and probably get about the same amount of use.
Good luck.

Osborne every time, Kreg any other time

I saw that the Incra is made in the USA and Osborne is made overseas.
That is somewhat a negative.

I think switching the Osborne from the right to the left slot is more work, but you can't loose with either.

Incra. Presets allow dialing in any angle to the nearest 1/10th of a degree. Presets on the Osborne are only every 5 degrees. Fence on the Incra is more versatile, allowing stops and other things to attach to the fence.

A gentleman here gave me the Osborne and I am very happy with it.

I like my Osbourne. You can fine tune it to cut perfectly; pretty easy to do. I check it just from time to time.

Have / had both.
My vote is Incra.
If for no other reason, the 1000 sweeps 180*.
For the same kinda money.
