ok so without looking to hard…..I couldn’t find a Betterley zero clearance insert for my new miter saw so of course I made one……I did it the same way as the fence all in reverse so it does not wear off the name…..

made the insert and fit it first…..drilled the holes to match then cut it out with blade to give it the zero clearance…..

other things are I retrofit the rectangular dust port to fit my 4″ hose for dust collection so it is ready for work…..

Looks great. The stock plates don’t quite close enough for a 90 degree bevel, so this will no doubt be quite the improvement. Now if only there were a quick change mechanism so you could swap out for a bevel zero clearance set on demand you’d be all set. I sense another project in the offing…
