A clamping apparatus for clamping a workpiece-blocking plate of a table saw includes a mounting member attached to a machine base, and a retaining plate mounted pivotally on the mounting member. The retaining plate has an L-shaped plate portion that supports the workpiece-blocking plate thereon and that is biased to press the workpiece-blocking plate against the mounting member. When the workpiece-blocking plate is removed from the apparatus, the retaining plate can be turned to a storage position, where the retaining plate is disposed within a notch in the mounting member and where the L-shaped plate portion is disposed within an L-shaped notch portion of the notch.
