Making a Zero-Clearance Insert - While an auxiliary fence prevents tearout along the back edge of a workpiece, it does not help along the bottom face. As the blade exits the bottom of the workpiece, the teeth can cause tearout, especially with the wide opening in most table saw inserts. If you need a clean cut along both faces of a workpiece, the solution is a zero-clearance insert.

It hit me that his Panel Cutting Table was really what I needed. Most of us have built or used something similar to Garys cutting table, it was his simple procedure for lifting the material onto the table that I had never thought of. Ingenious.

Making cross-cuts or trimming panels is much easier to do with a sled, it does not have to be fancy, just accurate. There are two basic designs, one runs beside the blade, like this one, the other runs on both sides of the blade. I like this one because it is simple to build and I think safer than the other style, the blade guard can still be used.
Over the previous few months I had become convinced of the need to have a splitter on my table saw.
