I thought of this solution to safely cut small pieces on my RAS.


I never saw anything like it and some may find it interesting.


Good trick. However, that particular model of RAS is on the recall list.
It does not have the safety shroud around the blade. There is none
available for retro fit. You can turn the motor housing in for $100.00.

If you don't remember to count your fingers after each use.

I sold my saw to a guy who just wanted the stand.

Dave,

It isn't setup like a RAS now.

The blade is FIXED.

There is no slide action of the blade.

The table slides and it is easy, (but not necessary), to install a
slide stop to prevent pushing past a certain point.


My fingers never get close to the blade.

Can you cut a tiny piece of wood on your table saw as easily and as
safely as shown in the video?
