thanks for all that contributed to the riving knife design. easy to build and boy do I feel more comfortable with my student when having him run the TS. I feel better running it myself

Lou,

Great job!

With students Lou, a cross cut sled is very helpful. It is more comfortable than a mater gauge and far more accurate than a CMS. You may already be using one?:confused:

[Jeff Sudmeier]

Looks great Lou!! A great safety addition!

[Alan See]

Lou, very nice metalwork. Your protege is a lucky guy. Is that a Curly maple throat plate?

[David Fried]

I'm sure it will work as great as it looks. Even the throat insert plate looks nice! I bought my last one but I'll try making my next one. Always nice to see a good safety feature.

hi mark

I do not have a sled for this saw yet. That is a good idea, and I should make one.

Hi alan and david

yes it is a curly maple throat plate. It is a good way to use up scraps laying around. If you would like to have one for your saw, just let me know and I would be glad to provide the stock for free.
