I have a new Delta 36-715 and the only thing I'm not entirely pleased
with is the guard. I've taken a quick look online for a overhead guard.
The Delta is $279 and third-party guards are close to $400. I think I
could craft a suitable stand and arm for one if I could find the guard
parts. Any suggestions? TIA.

Contact Lee Styron, maker of the Shark Guard. He may have one that fits your
saw. http://www.leestyron.com

Heh, that's not mine, but thanks. Mine looks similar but it's larger
(so that I can use it while using a dado stack, for example).

Well, I'm impressed. I bought mine from Penn State and it's pretty good but
there's no arguing with the price for yours. Your workmanship appears
excellent.

I built something similar to this (although mine has been through a
couple of evolutions since). It's really not that hard to do.
