In Response To: Strip: Saw setup update/clarification (Steve Solomon)

What he did, was clamp on a thing he'd made for a previous job, consisting of a roughly 18" piece of hardboard with a chunk of plywood attached. He adjusted the hardboard so it'd fit between the blade and the fence, lightly touching the stock, and the plywood was at the front of the blade to act as a guard. So it performs exactly the role that Rob's featherboard setup does.

Do you have pictures? Unfortunately, I can't visualize what you described.
