Update to Blade Guard article

In a previous article, I talked about a blade guard I built for the bridge. I just got a 8 1/4" Makita 5008MGA so I needed a slightly bigger guard, and I had decided previously that it would be good to have a guard on both sides and both ends of the rail.
The original guard seen from above.
The new guard, with protection on both sides.

With the new saw.
Seen from below.
The guard and saw at the other end of the rail.
Now hopefully, I wont accidentally grab the blade when doing lots of repetitive cuts.
