Mine is similar to that, except the handle goes the other way.
I don't like the designs that put the hand in front of the
notch pushing the board, because I think they can rotate
around the front and lift the notch. I think the hand needs
to be behind and above the notch so the line of force goes
thru the notch into the board.

That's for the table saw. For the bandsaw and router table
I just use any handy piece of scrap with a flat side. On
the jointer I use push pads on top of the stock.
