I have a Rigid TS3650 and decided to make a Zero insert. I did some web surfing and see people making their own, but the majority of them have 1/2" think inserts.
My factory insert is only about 1/8 inch thick. Any 1/8" material I might use to my way of thinking is not stable enough. Maybe I am wrong or not considering enough material?
I made an insert from 3/4" plywood, but requires a lot of routing, chiseling, sawing and carving to get it to fit, far too labor intensive.
After getting it to fit, I realize that the 4 adjusting screws will be threaded into 1/8" of plywood.I was going to use set screws like the original? Again seems to be inadequate? Maybe I am wrong.
Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, input or wise cracks greatly appreciated. JIm
