No additional hold downs.

There's a hold-down, not a table -- some extra applied gadget and thus
less simple and trustworthy than a table. It also relies on being
adjusted for thickness.

Do you adjust the blade height on the TS depending on the thickness of the workpiece? I do.

No, I always use the blade at full height. This is the big advantage
of the TS for ripping - I can use my blade so that the timber passes
through it with the blade travelling vertically and almost all no
horizontal drag forces.
