I need a better blade guard for my Ridgid TS3650 table saw. I've done heaps of research and, due to money limitations, I've whittled my choices between PSI's TSGuard: http://www.pennstateind.com/store/TSGUARD.html
and the Shark Guard http://www.leestyron.com/sharkridgid.php
My primary concern is safety (as a blade guard) and dust collection as secondary. In terms of price, the PSI is only $150 (shipped and delivered) vs. $177 for SharkGuard.
Any comments on the two systems (mostly the PSI; I've heard alot of positives on Sharkguard). I'm leaning towards the PSI overhead system because I may upgrade my saw in 3-5 years and I like that it hovers above the saw. The 3-plus month wait on the SharkGuard isn't ideal either.
I'd also have to buy a new splitter since the one that came with the Ridgid won't work with the PSI TSGUARD. Would an MJ Splitter work with the PSI system?
Thanks,
Greg
