Probably the final final video related to the Craftsman 100 10" table saw. Thought I was done, but decided on one more addition. A riving knife!
For anyone who followed the CM 100 restoration series, you might remember that I was able to find an original blade guard. Unfortunately, the blade guard sits about 2" above the table top due to how it mounts. As a result, I won't be using it. However, when you look at the components, it actually contains would would today be considered a riving knife. So, I put my thinking cap on.
I decided to make my own riving knife based on the original blade guard. As I was doing so, the thought of a splitter came to mind as I had been looking at splitters that get attached to zero insert blade covers. I don't want or need a zero insert cover, but I kind of like the idea of a splitter.
So this video is my attempts as creating 3 ideas: a full size riving knife, a smaller riving knife and finally a splitter. Happy with the results!

There was an existing bolt hole and small bolt already there holding in a "clamp" (for lack of a better word/description - see what I'm pointing to @ the ~10:00 min mark in the video) where I have it mounted, so I leveraged that and cut my splitter to fit accordingly.

That first cut was a little risky, I know you have your knife in place but that thin a cut between the blade and the fence might be asking for trouble with a pinched piece and a kit-back ! :-)) The second cut was the way to do the first cut.

I will have to install my splitter back on. Thanks for the reminder. I have the same series saw after fighting with that fence, I finally gave up and replaced it, it was often misaligned and caused kick back From my understanding the splitter should be slightly thinner as yours is Mine is currently my primary table saw used for making furniture and case work not a restoration and modified; new fence, miter gauge, zero clearance insert made from aluminum, and 2hp motor
