Table Saw Insert for Delta 36-465 with replaceable inserts

Summary

This insert was inspired by the insert provided by @agenkin.

It is my first attempt to design a 3D model from scratch. I have provided the Fusion 360 model as well as the STL file if you want to make your own modifications.

The dimensions of the insert are 3 3/4" wide 13 5/16" long and 1/2" thick.

It accepts a 1/8" thick replaceable insert, which you can use for zero clearance or dado inserts. The replaceable inserts need to be 1 3/4" wide with a 45 degree chamfer on both sides (making the top width 1 1/2" wide)

The insert is split into two pieces to make it easier to print on smaller printers. there are 4 threaded holes that accept a 3/16" set screw for use in leveling.

I have altered the insert a little from the pictures I have provided. I originally had screw holes to connect to two pieces together, but I found that they would tend to split the print so I removed them and am using some CA glue instead. Franky, I have used the insert without attaching the two pieces together as well because the insert blanks hold everything together well if they are a good fit.

I also moved the finger hole back a bit because I felt it was more convenient to removing the insert from the saw.

I hope you find it useful. If you have any questions or suggestions, let me know.
