Zero clearance bandsaw throat
Do you ever cut tiny slivers off with the bandsaw, only to find that they get stuck between the blade and the throat?
When I am cutting small pieces I use a couple of sheets of fridge magnet material on the table, set so there is zero clearance between them and the blade.
I used to stick cardboard to the table, but the magnetic sheets are much more convenient. When they are not in use I slap them on the top door of the saw.

Good idea. hadn't thought about using a magnetic sheet. have used zero clearance inserts but have had them get caught when forgot to remove it before doing sharp curves on boards
