Finally made a Zero Clearance for my 10” Bosch SCMS using some Aussie Hardwood after finding a Zero Clearance for my 10” Bosch Contractors Saw.

And to top it all off I remade my “Mini Router Table” slightly larger.

Very satisfying for Me, Papa Smurf and Handy Smurf :2tsup:

All ready for more toymaking!

Looks good. I've been meaning to make a zero clearance insert and fence for my mitre saw for a while now, but haven't got around to it. Have some finch nesting boxes to make for a friend of the wife this week, so might be a good opportunity to give the saw a birthday at the same time. I bought a couple of cheap UHMWPE kitchen cutting boards recently - think I'll use them for zero clearance inserts.

thanks for the inspiration

I spent the afternoon making these for my metabo combination saw

they won't be any good for the rare times I want to do a bevel cut but I can easily switch back to the stock inserts

you are right, they were satisfying to make

cheers

Well done Hodgo :2tsup::2tsup:
Yes you’re correct on the bevel cutting!
Easy to change out for that cut.
So much safer now for straight cuts, top marks sir!
