    You are talking my language when it comes to improving accuracy!! I love being able to work with precision and as you show, it doesn't mean that it will take any longer and often it saves time. I love seeing how you can batch out the zero clean inserts with each one being perfect. Great collection of tips in this video. Well done, Ramon 🙂

    Absolutely crazy how much information you have crammed into one video. Love those zero inserts, such a pity that postage to Australia is a killer but I think I may have to bite the bullet and get some as mine just broke big time. The original Felder inserts are absolute crap. Have just ordered me a pair of 123 blocks, what a great idea for easily checking the accuracy of my panel saw. Cheers Ramon and this video deserves a sh!t load more views than this

    Thanks Darren…I appreciate your support always. I’ve always said that someone could have a super legit company just making ZCI’s for sliders. Not one single brand that I’ve ever been on or seen, has a correct insert. Most older sliders literally have notches in the slider part from the blade being deflected from a chunk of wood. Anyway, thanks a ton.

Fui a tu web y lo veo a 82 dólares. Este precio es correcto? al cambio en euros, equivale a 75,50 Euros. Es que me parece excesivo. Me lo puedes confirmar, por favor?

    @@ramonartful Te pregunto si lo puedes enviar a España por el tema de Aduanas. Yo sé que algunos vendedores como por ejemplo Amazon, le compras algún artículo y no pagas nada más en Aduanas, pero por ejemplo con Aliexpress he tenido un par de compras que sí me han hecho pagar aranceles en Aduanas y claro, eso es una molestia muy grande. Si lo envías a España, además del precio del envío, sabes si voy a tener que pagar aranceles en Aduana? o ese aspecto ya está gestionado y pagado dentro del precio del envío y no me va a suponer un gasto adicional? Sácame de dudas, por favor. Muchas gracias Ramón! ^_^

    I think what @zohranbloedjes9770 is referring too is the fact that small offcuts can lodge, jam or even cause the blade to deflect as they get slammed in betwixt the saw table and blade. Or carriage and blade. Every single brand that I’ve ever seen has this issue. Thanks for checking out the video 🙏🏼
