Allows usage of this featherboard to be used on a table saw with ¾" miter slot (with 3/8" depth).

Uses three 1/4-20 UNC hex bolts, 2 ½", and nuts. This style of miter slot is a straight channel - no T shape to tighten vertically. The intention was for the insert to push the miter bar sideways into the slot as it was tightened to secure the bar in place. This works a little bit, but not enough to clamp it in place. Instead, I added another hex-bolt mount at the back end of the bar to prevent forward movement when it runs into the front panel of the saw. This keeps it safely in place and makes it possible to use a 3d printed featherboard on a legacy piece of equipment.
