But there’s a lot that video doesn’t show. (Link At Bottom) I like the basic design and they actually provide Sketchup plans. I found a pretty neat idea for a removable table extension on a video that you definitely should watch. Keep the old insert handy for bevel cuts.ĥ) It has a small table, so build an extension, especially on the infeed side. The lip doesn’t fit tight until you hit it w/ a dab of hot glue, install it and it will mold perfectly to the bottom side of the table. It’s easy to duplicate this lip on the back edge of your new plate. Also, the stock plate has a lip on the back side (side away from user) that locks into the table and prevents the back side of the plate from coming up.
I tried to level it w/ hot glue like on Stumpy Nubs’s site, but it didn’t work perfectly. I wanted it to be more snugly than stock, so didn’t just use a router flush cut bit with the stock plate. #3 The stock throat plate is sloppy-loose and has waaay too much clearanceīuild a zero-clearance insert. I don’t think Diablo makes a different kerf.
The blade is ‘thin kerf’, so buy accordingly to use the stock riving knife. Swap out the 24 tooth construction blade for something like a 40 tooth combination blade.
