Hi Guys. Hope you all having a great day. Some of you have contacted me to say the Evolution discount code does not work for various items. I have been in touch with the very nice people there and we now have an addition discount code of SMALLBARNWORKSHOP5 . This will get you 5% of everything , including the zero insert plates. Regards JP
I always found that locking down the fence over part of the new insert, helps to keep it more stable when cutting the slot.
Guess i was lucky compared to your first attempt, mine wouldn't go low enough, but mine cut out straight away without flexing anything up like yours. Just switched back on and all good👍
Good to hear Frazer! Regards JP
I agree that a few pointers about installing it would be helpful, but it is definitely better than my home-made version!
£60, I will stick with a 3d printed version for 10% of the cost. It also works perfectly
Love a bit of troubleshooting 😁😎
😂 sometimes you just have to figure it out! Regards JP
Had the same issue could not get the blade low enough so I have evolution mitre saw with smaller blade swapped them over made the cut and swapped back again
That’s a good idea 👍 Regards JP
Yeah, I just tried to use the code for the clearance plate, but I got a message saying that it wasn't valid for the items in the basket. Whether the code has expired I dont know. But for the sake of £3, I've just bought it anyways ;). Great content sir!
Hi. I did speak to Evolution the other day and its still current I think due to the popularity of that item it’s no longer covered 😞 Regards JP
This is a great idea with the replaceable inserts 👍, would be good if other manufacturers made them available, it was a fair bit of tinkering/fine tuning when I made one for my Dewalt.
Totally agree especially if they were sensibly priced. Regards JP
Hiya JP. Nice bit of kit. Did the gaffer tape trick, worked for a short while then it started to peel back with the wood passing over it. Watched Thomas vids on this saw. Mine has to stay as a contractor's saw as I'm having to store it in the wee tool shed and set it up on the patio when needed. I did find the plate on the site but was informed your discount code isn't available. Will have gander tomorrow. Take care & stay safe M8.
Hi Doug, thanks for the heads up regarding the discount code SMALLLOFTWORKSHOP should work. I often used the tape trick on the DeWalt. I have a short video. Regards JP

Thanks for the update on the saw.
You’re welcome Mike. Regards JP
Hi , thanks for this tip , but could you also advise on the table saw fence you have . As I have a rage 5 table saw and the rip fence is horrendous, yours looks much sturdier. Cheers ,
HI. It is the standard fence. I bought the saw in Oct 21 (in France) Not sure if they have changed the design before / after that date. Regards JP
Thanks for quick reply , I’ve contacted evolution but no luck , just trying to find something that is more secure . Literally can’t use the fence with rage 5 ( not a 5s) . So if anyone else has any ideas would appreciate the info , cheers
@CasualDIY built a fence here

Hi JP, i've been using one of these inserts for a while now and they are definitely better than the supplied orange one. I had same issue with first cut through as you and my dust collection area was empty, there's obviously very little space but if you're aware then it's no issue. Thanks for another good vid.
Hi Stig. Thanks for the comment, glad you also are enjoying the zero plate. Regards JP
Cant find them on Evolution site. Anyone got a link?
Hiya JP, was wondering if i can leave my Saxton blade inserterd or do i have to replace the Evo blade back to make the cut. Guessing the kerf of both blades differ but my main concern is that the Saxton blade dont cut nothing but timber. Thanks.
Hi. This was made with my 80T Saxton. I wonder if the Evo blade may have been better for the first cut then widened with the Saxon (?) Regards JP
I’ve just got one of these and it won’t fit because the blade doesn’t retract enough, it keeps switching off
Yes its very tight in there. Have you cleaned the dust cover out below the blade? Regards JP
@@Smallbarnworkshop yep but blade won’t drop any further
Its is very tight. I think it stopped mine a couple of times before it made the first cut. It's a bit dangerous to be fair. Regards JP
Hey, do you have a part number? I don't see it listed on the evolution website?
Hi. Please find the link to the part on the UK site. I do not think it’s rolled out to all regions yet. Regards JP

@@Smallbarnworkshop Hi, I wanted to get a zero clearance plate, but the link above comes back as 404 Not Found and the Evolution UK website does not seem to have them - have they been discontinued already?
@bigblokeinuk8974 Hi. You're the third person who has asked this week . I'll drop them an email and see what's going on. Regards JP
Damn, can't find these listed anywhere, are they still available?
I think Evolution are out of stock at the moment. Maybe because they have focused on the new saw . Regards JP
@@Smallbarnworkshop That would suck as they clearly know the standard throat plate isn't good enough but they're still selling the saw, oh well, it'll have to be a 3d printed one
now back is stock. Don’t forget to use SMALLBARN discount code if ordering one shop.evolutionpowertools.com/products/rage5-s-aluminium-insert-plate-with-two-zero-clearance-inserts
Hi. Can u send the link of this plate pls? Thanks from Spain 👋
HI. I have an email pending with Evolution to see when they are back in stock. Will let you know. Regards JP

@@Smallbarnworkshop oh! No delivery to spain!! 🤦♂️
currently on offer at £19.99 on the site, but then the extra 10% doesnt work ...
Sadly, when they have an offer on they don't seem to! Thanks for flagging, I will discuss with my contact there.
Regards
Hi, a little to late for you, but I have sorted this. Regards JP
Hope you all having a great day. Some of you have contacted me to say the Evolution discount code does not work for various items.

I thought your viewers would like to know that Evolution isn't offering the upgraded Insert Plate to folks in the United States. I contacted their support and they wouldn't even let me purchase one saying they can't ship to the USA. Very disappointed! I guess I'll try one of the many 3D printed designs on Etsy.
Hi The DIG. Sorry, I wasn't aware. On the upside, you guys get to buy some cool stuff that never make it over the pond. I will swap a zero insert for a Sawstop🤣 Regards JP
Got rid of the stand and that debri catcher on arrival.
