stumped on a workable method to properly raise the insert flush with table
saw top. The metal insert I have has adjustable Allen screws which don't
seem all that workable in a home made wooden zero clearance insert.

How do you raise your insert?


Made mine from 1/2" UHMW PE with a dovetailed recess for 1/4"
replaceable inserts. Drilled and tapped holes for #6 setscrews in the
appropriate locations. Would work just as well with a hardwood body. I
frequently drill and tap UNC threads in hardwood and BB plywood.
