If the following has been brought up before I missed it. Never been a fan of using wood for runners on a table saw sled. I purchased two metal runners from Proxxon and being made for this saw fit and move perfectly.
Just a suggestion in case you want to spend a few bucks.
 
I took a peek at the Proxxon website and didn't see these runners. Do you have a part number or a link? I always geek out on small tool mods.
 
They aren’t classified as runners by Proxxon. They are the metal piece used on the miter gauge.
They are called “guidance assembly “. 2 of them for $16.50 seemed like a steal to me.
S37070-108 Guidance in Assembly S37070-11 is what shows on my invoice.
 
I need to make a cross-cut sled for my FET. I had assumed I’d use wood for the runners, but your post reminded me that the wood runners on my full-sized cross-cut sled gave me no end of trouble with seasonal humidity changes. I have a fair bit of polycarbonate in the stash, so I might give that a try.
