Howard Ferstler, Please tell me how to make the cut in the insert for a bandsaw. I have to make the initial cut on the BS, but how do I position it so it is lined up with the hole in the table? Table saws are different. There, the insert is in place and you raise the blade up through the insert. You can't do that with a BS.

Thanks Howard. Actually, I don't need a zero clearance insert plate; just a smaller gap so small bits of wood don't get down and wedge themselves between the wheel and the blade.
