In Response To: Tools: Can We Talk About Table Saws?? *PIC* (Kurt Maurer)

When I boat my Delta table saw, it came with the riving knife and hood cover, The riving knife never seemed to line up with wood passing by and caused more danger than without as I would have to back out and adjust. Reaching over the moving blade is definitely not in my comfort zone. Both were removed in about a week and have never been put back on. In fact I don't even know where they are. Cutting thin strips with a hood cover is not possible and that is what I mostly use the table saw for. Not for cutting sheets of plywood in half.

Do you mean "riving knife" or "splitter"?

Here's a video that explains it
