Default Dug out my old Copydex JointMaster, what about replacement guides?

what ingenious methods have others applied to simulate the guides?


No responses, maybe not many people know what a Copydex JointMaster
is? I've not heard of it before but google
finds:

I guess you are looking for the rounded clippy things at the top
right of the saw guides?


I still have mine. Gets occasional use away from home.

I don't think the *clippy thing* is essential. Just keep the blade to
one side of the slot manually.

My first problem was having to find a tenon saw with a blade deep enough
to reach the bottom of the guides. In the era of throw away saws with
stiff blades and huge choice of tooth intervals, this may not be an
obstacle.
