Since I don't use the blade guard, but I do use the splitter, I
cut the kickback pawls off the splitter and made it short enough
that I can leave it on for sled crosscuts, which is about 95% of
crosscutting I do in the shop.

Karl - how deep is your sled (front to back)? I'm thinking of a
sled as I
get older and wiser and have been mulling over just how deep to
build one.


I have a few of various sizes. The one in the photo I use the most
and will cut a 13" wide panel, so it is about 13 1/4" deep.

Look at the splitter on the 2002 (look towards the bottom of the pdf).
Was it a new innovation at the time?

Not a new innovation at all (even at the time) Bill - in fact, quite the
opposite. But a splitter is different than what I asked Karl about in the
above referenced quote. Perhaps you confused an earlier post from Karl
about splitters.
