This tool makes resawing boards on a bandsaw much safer and will also improve thickness consistency.
Always use a push stick. Bandsaws can bite, hard. Don't ask me how I know this! Learn from my mistakes.
I also highly recommend having outfeed support or a helper to support the board.
I have added a single layer that you can use as you see fit. I have also added middle layers stacked three, five, and nine high.
I used PETG as the material. That is what I had. PLA should also work fine.
For the mitre gauge bar, I used a piece of scrap European Beech. There is a countersunk 1/4" bolt as shown. With the sawn split (I used a coping saw) with relief holes at the end to prevent further splitting. This works quite well. I tried using a knob to tighten this to get it to grip but I found it better to use a nut and a spanner.
Also shown are washers bolted to the ends of the wooden bar. These engage in the T section of the mitre gauge track and prevent the bar from lifting out of the track.
