I do scarf joints a whole different way. I see way to much to go wrong using either a RAS or a tablesaw. I cut both pieces at one time with a router if they are small and a skilsaw if they are too big for a router.
What I do is rough cut the pieces, flip the one over so it is at the same angle, clamp them together, with a little dab of hot melt out by the point that will easily come off with a chisel when done. These are clamped to a piece not unlike your sled, but that is screwed to the bench. Then I position a cutoff guide over the top of them and make the cut. If it is made with a router I climb cut to avoid breaking the fine point. Keep in mind I have rough cut and am only taking off a 1/16" at the most. If they are too large for a router, over 2"s, I cut them with a skilsaw and clean them up with a shooting board arrangement or just a piece of stickit paper on a hardwood block.
This is much faster and safer than trying to cut the end of a long piece on a stationary saw, and the results are the same or better.
