For insert plates:
Take a look at Woodcraft and Lee Valley. Both carry a wide variety of
insert plates and should have something to fit the saw. Both companies
should respond to an e-mail in a timely manner. Expect to spend at least
$20.

I've heard that many folks use Biesemeyer fences on their Craftman TS, but
it may be pretty pricy by the time you change the rails too.

As far as zero clearance inserts, have you considered making your own from
1/4 plywood? I had a stack of old drawers bottoms that were a full 1/4 and perfectly
flat, so,I made a bunch of insert blanks. Some are now zero clearance, and some are
dado inserts.

Leecraft is your best bet if not fabricating your own.
might be available @ Amazon, Woodcraft, etc.
