The fix allows you to use it as intended in the correct orientation. You don't have to go crazy filing/sanding it down. Probably only 1/32-1/16 shaved off lets it lock down perfectly.

Gotcha,
Practice makes perfect when it comes to aligning the chippers but don't go too crazy, as long as you don't have anything touching the carbide and have the chippers somewhat evenly rotated...

Hey Everyone,
Here is the final update and a fix for those that have the same issue:
Kreg sent me a replacement part for my mitre gauge and it behaved exactly the same as the previous part with...
I will say this I just called them with zero expectation and they are sending me a replacement flip stop (well out of warranty as I bought this in 2017 which I was clear about)

As long as you have the blade square to the table and have the saw on a reasonably flat surface you should be fine having the whole saw tilt slightly in any direction. As the G0833P is a hybrid saw...
While a planer would be preferred as its faster a drum sander will do just fine to flatten your strips, initial glue up and final glue up without much fuss...

The difference between the 1.75hp and 3hp saws is literally the switch box (120v vs 220v) and the motor*. You can upgrade the 1.75hp saw to 220 any time by...
The cheapest way to buy a SawStop is to pick it up from stock on hand at a local retailer (my local Rockler sold me mine for $2469 + tax without any handling fee) unless your sales tax on the saw is...
Hey Tom,
I have a 19-38 as well and use it to dimension/flatten my end grain boards (like this one HERE) where dimensions are fairly critical... I normally try to batch my cutting boards into...
Not sure if you have a local Rockler or Woodcraft but if you do, call and see if they have any in stock... I picked up my 14|12 from Rockler for 10% off during the sale last year and didn't have to...
If you look around you will find the saw has a price that includes shipping padded into the price and then says free shipping OR its $250 off with a $250 shipping charge...

I have a PCS 1.75hp and it is a fantastic saw. I would strongly suggest getting the upgraded T-Glide Fence but otherwise the saw is very well built with superb dust collection. I wasn't specifically...

You *just* missed it, Sawstops promotions are run like clockwork from 3/1 through 4/30. It's not a discount, its a free PCS mobile base or Overarm Dust Collection boom (which requires that you buy...

This is critical, when on the track, the saw should slide smoothly along the...
Bosch mr23ev with a plunge base. I’m happy with the router but was super bummed when I found out you can’t use a router lift with it.
Just to throw out another option, I recently picked up one of the new Oneida Router Hoods for like $40 and I'm very happy with it so far.
I was watching an interesting video on squaring stock recently from the Gwinnett Woodworking Association: The 4 Square Method (this link takes you to the specific time about planer sleds but the...
