@ralphcanoes Thanks for your suggestion. However, I am more concerned with table saw safety than I am with the speed at which I get things done.
With your suggestion, I don’t feel there is enough wood between the blade and the fence for adequate support. Also, I use the Rip-Strate hold-down device shown in the video as much as I possibly can to avoid any kick-backs and it needs to be between the blade and the fence.
Hope this helps explain the method to my madness.
Why don’t you just set your fence about 7/16 away from the blade ?? If you have to move your fence each time your just wasting tons of time.
Great idea! Thanks for sharing it. Good clear explanations and video. Well done.
cool…home made splitter, and it works perfectly…thanks for sharing…
I appreciate your comments. I get a few hits but not many comments. THANKS !
I like how you take your time and plan ahead with everything.
Most of us are in a rush and just cut with out much preparation or thought.
You’re an inspiration.
