If you are like me and don't own a professional grade, monster table saw ( I have a normal, human size saw ) "Board Buddies" are great.

I cut down a 2 X 4, attached these to the top of it and clamp it all to my table saw fence. This keeps the material tight up against the fence at all times and the wheels only roll one direction, preventing kickbacks.
