I was just reading about Powermatics new table saw, the PM2000. One of
the new features highlighted was a riving knife, a feature that the
predicted would become mandatory in the next ten years. To me it looks
like a splitter only it is attached to the trunnion rather than the
fence. Is there something more to the difference or is the name change
just to differentiate the mounting location?


Does anyone know of a source for riving knives that one could adapt for the
US made (or sold!) saws? I too am most interested in installing such a
beast but don't have the patience (read: time) to try to figure one out at
the moment.
Cheers,
