I didn't know if I should post this in the articles section or not because there might be another one somewhat like it on this site.
I remember seeing someplace where someone made an extension to easily turn off the switch from either side of the TS. But now I can't find it, and I don't know if it was on this site or not, or exactly how it was made. It used PVC pipe, so I made one that is not really like the one I saw, but it works great!
I used some 3/4" PVC pipe and fittings that were left from another job, and had been in the garage for probably 2 years or so. I didn't have 90 degree elbows, but I did have quite a few Tees, so that's what I used, to be replaced with elbows later. I did not glue anything, but things fit tightly.
The assembly is attached to the saw by slipping the Tees (to be elbows) over a piece of 3/4" dowel, screwed to each side of the saw.
This is a quick and very easy modification for giving your saw an additional safety feature that you're sure to appreciate at some time or other.
