Tools and Hardware Reviews of HTC 10A-L Brett-Guard Table Saw Guard

Customer Review: good for a blade guard, poor wood splitter, pricey
Summary: 3 Stars

The guard is a great safety device that protects you from the blade but is not hard to remove,raise or lower.

It stands head and shoulders above a stock blade guard.

The anti kickback device is a bit lame with only two points to hold down the workpiece.

You will need to drill holes in your saw table to mount the blade guard's raising and lowering device.

I ordered a thin kerf splitter that cost over $20. A rip off.

I ended up building my own splitter from hard wood.

The guard is pricey at ~$200.

Overall, the guard (even with it's shortcomings) is an excellent safety device.

Description of HTC 10A-L Brett-Guard Table Saw Guard

The Brett-Guard Table Saw Guard is exceptionally effective and easy to use. It is designed to overcome the objection "we can't guard that operation". It's fully adjustable inverted box-type transparent shield provides safety while performing virtually any cutting operation. The clear shield is firmly suspended over your work in either a cantilever or tabletop mount. The Brett Guard is an adjustable "fixed barrier" guard that, when properly adjusted, will not ride up, or climb over the work piece or, more importantly your fingers, providing excellent protection from the blade. Each guard contains an adjustable anti-kickback mechanism that can be retracted for working with soft materials or veneers. Also included with each guard is a splitter.
