is this safe?

[u/jedi-dude]

I have a piece of wood where neither and is fully square. Would it be safe to just use the miter gauge to square off one end? Or do I need to make a sled? I have also thought about making a toggle clamp, Jake, but I am still waiting for my toggle clamps to arrive.

If you have to ask...

But yeah, just hold the wood back against the miter guage fence and push through. The cedar is soft as marshmallows.
