Table Saw accessories

[Joseph Tarantino]

when i finally get to using my 18" BS more regularly, i'll toss the POS HTC base it's on now and get this when it's on sale for ~ $50:

variable size, two swiveling casters and doubling up the plywood would make for an extremely sturdy base.

I've always had a problem with commercial mobile bases in my shop. I've started using a double stack of plywood and Kreg casters. Currently have my table saw, router table, and two planners mounted that way...

Zero clearance inserts

This is what I did

Measure the thickness of the manufacturers insert with calipers or micrometer

Go into laminate flooring store ,Identify piece of flooring of same thickness and with smooth finish ,then make replacement insert as described by Bill

( ask if they have any off cuts or ex-display this may save you some money )

and being intended for flooring it should in theory wear well

Further I sprayed the inserts red The theory the red colour would act as a visual warning indicator that is you hand must never enter the red area

Thanks gentlemen!!

Thanks for all the great ideas. I don't have a bandsaw ... yet. It's on the short list

I don't either. I cut the blanks to width by using the template as a guide between the blade and the fence on my TS. Then I cut the blanks to length, traced the outline & nibbled away most of the rounded portion excess using a miter saw. The rest was cleaned up by two faced taping the template to the blank & using a top bearing bit on the router table.

In thinking about it, could I just replace the existing rubber adjustable foot pads with some good locking casters? Fixed on one side, swivel in the other.

seems like it should work.
