I agree with the first two responses you got my original sled was a work in progress and through the advice I received here it ended up working very well and I turned a ton of plugs with it. I would start with the ProfM carbide tool bit and holder he makes it cuts so much better than the tool steel ones you can get and when they get dull you can turn it around and use the other side. Adding the weight will make a big difference when it comes to control. I would also recommend a set of handles as seen in the pictures above they will also help with control. Something ProfM told me which helped a lot on my second sled which was put the handles low enough so you can use your hands on the deck for added control.
Good luck it's a lot of fun building you own dupe then seeing it work.
