A few months back, I finally gave in and remove the original splitter and blade shield from my Craftsmand contractor table saw. The saw is much more convenient to use in this configuration, but I'm not entirely comfortable without the splitter in place. In an ideal world, the saw would have a riving knife, but we all know that's not the case, so I'm looking for suggestions for an aftermarket splitter that will fit my saw and be more functional than the original. I've done a bit of research and have found that splitters that will fit the Craftsman are few and far between, so I'm hoping that someone out there had a solution for me.
I am planning on either buying or building an overarm blade guard that incorporates dust collection, but I want to find the splitter first, as that may affect the rest of the system.
Thanks,
Mickey
