Are you sure 300.00 is not just the guard and does not include the support bracket. It seems cheap to me, maybe I'm just use to Felder pricing.
I have the O/H guard on my saw and its big and well built, I do not use it but and would like to for the dust collection part, but I cant get use to it Its seems to be in the way and hard run my hand behind it when that occurs, that said I have never had an over head guard on any saw I have ever owned, but as I get older I trying to get use to using it. I like knowing exactly where that blade really is. Glen

I am definitely interested in a group buy.

I’d definitely be interested in one also. I’m in the SF Bay Area. I looked at the Grizzly a while ago, but hadn’t heard of anyone using it on a Felder, and just didn’t pull the trigger. Glad to hear that one seems to work well for it, but I do like the look of the interchangeable guards on this one.?

Thanks Shawn and others for voicing their interest. I counted 4 including myself. Let me see where the conversation leads with the sales rep and will get back to this thread with updates.?
Glen - I would agree, $300 would be a crazy price but their sliders are coming in at $5k to $14k so I think this pricing is definitely on a different scale than Felder's.?

From the parts diagram, it appears to be the entire assembly including the support arms and hose.? i'm definitely interested.

I bought a Shark Guard for my old Delta a couple of years ago. It was a huge improvement over what came from the factory. I sent the guy who made it an email to see if he’s interested in talking to you guys. Or maybe he only reps them, I don’t know, but he replied that he is interested. Once I get his name and info I’ll post it here.

In case that one doesn't work out there is this in the UK. They may ship to the USA. It comes from one of their high rated sliding saws although I haven't found any other pictures of it yet.

I am also in the Bay Area.? I am interested, provided it works on Hammer saws.

Quick update:?
I received the initial single quantity quote yesterday. The good news -- it is indeed $300 but the entire unit, which includes the crating/palette, weighs something like 77kgs! As a result, the freight itself is very high - they quoted $670 to my part of the country, using air freight -- which is the bad news. I'm not a shipping/logistics expert but the use of ocean freight for a small less than container load would be even more expensive, so they recommended using air freight. This brings the total to just shy of $1000, which is high in my opinion.?I collected our interest and replied back asking for a consolidated quote for 4 sets combined into one palette, so in theory that could shave off some cost. Once I receive the updated numbers, I will share.
I wasn't expecting to organize a group buy and because of the weight, I think it would present some cost challenges for folks not close to the SF Bay Area and logistics challenges in terms of distribution. So at this point, it's not looking great given we all wanted to "experiment" with a low cost option.?

Just checked?Scott&Sargent -- it just so happens the shipping cost to me, along with the guard comes in at exactly $1,005.08? --? ?:) The guard looks to be of the same type of build, from the video found their slider product page.?
This got me searching....Grizzly imports Asian sliders too and I found the same exact assembly on one of their sliders here page 97:
I called them; it's priced at $1113 + $24 shipping (ha!) = $1137?

Sang Luu,
It may be worth your while to check on ocean freight. You likely will not get much discount on air freight for multiple units but you may on ocean freight.

You likely have contacted Mary Wu (the is a form to fill at the OAV website); did she send the drawing? I believe OAV means Overall and Advanced Vigor
|
It may not be available, as a number of hits that look like (by title) as possible items in the on-line catalog items (found by searching for a "Euro Guard") are grayed out. They state "We are sorry this product is currently ineligible for shipment to your country".? Part of the tariffs?

Thanks. I will give them a call next week. I have been looking at it for two years it was cheaper last year. I don’t understand why they are all so expensive. I don’t think any of them work as good as the price. Doug

Dave,
Do you have any photos of the Shark Guard on your KF700? I am leaning that way for my KF.

I checked out their website. Pretty basic guard, but the 4" hose right above the blade looks like it should do well on dust collection.? Looks like they use a 3D printer to form dust shroud to maximize collection area. Clever idea?
Not sure how sturdy splitter/mount is but may be worth a look. At $140,?it's very inexpensive.?
