Routing Table Saw inserts
Drilling two nail-sized holes in your tablesaw insert lets you tack the insert to a rough-cut blank and pattern-rout a replacement wooden insert that’s exactly the size of the original. A flush-trim bit with a ball-bearing pilot works best for the routing. Before you start, thickness-plane the stock for the blanks to the exact depth of your insert hole. I make the inserts up by the dozen and put in a new one at each blade change.
