And see my info on safe saw set-up, down the page at - http://www.laughingloon.com/shoptips3.html

It's time to stop monkeying around and adapt safe practices.

Properly set-up a riving knife does not impede anything you've done before on a saw.

Rob:
How do you cut a zero-clearance throat plate with a riving knife added to the saw? (Do you do this by hand?)

i see that you don't use:
a) outfeed table
How do you control a longer (even 8') board when it is hanging off the end of the table near the end of a rip cut? It must need a lot of downward pressure on the board. (Or do you use (always tippy) rollers off the end of the saw?)
b)ripping fence
Without a (partial length) ripping fence, you are inviting kickbacks. Will your riving knife reliably catch a 3/16" strip?

It's time to stop monkeying around and adapt safe practices.

I agree.
