No flagging on safari/ipad for me.
$30 for a zero clearance insert is steep, Bosch has them for $7 for my jobs site saw.
But good that they are in the market.

I also realized that the Oliver 10010 is very very similar to the Grizzly G0869 with some updates. They are probably coming from the same factory.

I realize this thread is pretty old now, but, for anyone interested, I spoke with an Oliver rep today who confirmed their planer is made in the same factory as the Grizzly G0940. I'm sure the same is true for the table saw.

Curiously, the Grizzly data sheet lists the G0940 sound rating in the 80 dB range, but gives no distance at which the test was performed. Oliver says theirs is ~100 dB at two feet. I suspect Grizzly is testing at 10-20 feet, but haven't gotten thier rep to confirm.

Does anyone happen to have experience with both the Oliver and Grizzly G0940 planers? Is there any discernable difference in noise level between the two?
