Purchased a Delta table saw from my LHS and although the throat plate that comes standard works, it lets a LOT of dust and debris through.  So, instead of plunking down big bucks for a replacement I simply made my own.  And it worked!  Shocked!  Yeah, me too!

I broke this down into two parts because of the side.  A little epoxy and it's good to go!  I also beefed up this version from the original and added a thumb hole.  As of yet I don't have holes for the adjustment screws, simply because I didn't need them yet.

I used PLA with a rough .35 resolution and a 25% infill.

NOTE:  This NOT for angled cuts!  Use caution when using, this has worked for me without issue but your mileage may vary.

This and a little cardboard insert that sits right underneath the plate has GREATLY reduced all the man-glitter that used to accumulate underneath my saw.

I lowered the blade, replaced the plate, started the saw and then slowly raised the blade with a piece of scrape plywood holding everything down.  Once the blade was raised all the way up everything worked as normal.

Like my design, how about a cup of coffee?
