Take a look at the BTXX mount. Two bolts and some shims to center the
knife on the blade. The distance between the knife and blade is fixed and
it moves up and down and tilts With the blade. No complexity.

With simpleness comes compromise in function. I described a riving knife
that does more. Its not so complex if its built from the factory to begin
with. But retrofitting requires disassembley of many things and replacement
of some major cast parts.

no compromise with that mechanism. arbor travel is linear in that saw,
rather than pivot. it works fine.

the problems with it are from the castings being aluminum, rather than
from configuration.
