John, those Carter Products look very tempting.

N240sxle91, I do have the "Cool Blocks" on there now, and they seem to work good.

I have the Carter guides and a Wolf resaw blade. No blade drift. I actually did some resawing without the blade tensioned. I didn't notice until I opened the saw to vacuum out the dust.

I used the standard guides for years then tried the cool blocks. Neither worked well for me.

One tip I picked up on from somewhere is to never use your resaw blade for curved cuts. It will twist the blade and cause it to drift.
