Miter apparatus for use with a cutting tool having a table top containing an alignment groove. The miter apparatus includes a guide bar adapted to slidably fit in the alignment groove, a head assembly pivotally secured to the guide bar, and a telescopic fence assembly secured to the head assembly. The fence assembly is adjustable in length and includes an inner rail telescopically received within an outer rail, each rail being provided with a retractable workpiece stop which is pivotally mounted on its rail so as to be movable from an operative to a retracted position. A clamping mechanism may be provided for securing a workpiece in position against the guide bar.
