The Best Blade Guard Made! : Biesemeyer 78-960 T-Square Table Saw BladeGuard System for 50-Inch and 52-Inch Fences
I looked at every overarm blade guard principles for my Unisaw (Excalibur, Delta, etc.) before buying this one. The containers was first rate and everything was in excellent health except the plexiglass blade guard housing which was wholly clouded over. I called Biesemeyer and they immediately shipped me a new housing, telling me it was a known qoute but only occurred intermittently. (They believe it might be a chemical reaction with the foam packaging, but are not sure yet.) In any event, Biesemeyer has Great buyer service.Installation is pretty much what you would expect ... I dutifully attached the postponement arm to the threaded rod and cranked it in until it was correctly adjusted. I was a limited taken aback by how long it took to move the arm out of the way to cut tenons on tall stock. After using the crank cope a join of times to accompish this task, I decided to remove the treaded rod alltogether and plainly slide the postponement arm into the tube and lock it with the knob provided. It works perfectly. I can remove the assembly in seconds and put it back in the same number of time. I don't admittedly understand why Biesemeyer designed the guard this way, but I'm very happy with it in it's "diminished" form. This is the best blade guard out there. I'm wholly comfortable with it.
If you are not using a splitter (I didn't use the splitter that came with the blade guard because I had already installed Biesemeyer's higher-quality version) and a blade guard, you are playing Russian Roulette with your hands. I've had only one kickback in years of woodworking, but I came very, very close to running my hand straight through the blade. (I could feel the wind from the carbide tips...) Buy this now and setup it. You won't be sorry.
