Agreed. That made me wince seeing his hands go so close. Even with a riving knife and guard I still wouldn't.

He's just going for the shop teacher look.🙃

This is 80 y.o. Craftsman 113 Table Saw has't riving knife initially, considering about adding micotic splitter to it

Спасибо!

It’s Craftsman 113 from 1950s. It was not equipped with riving knife. May be I’ll try Microjig splitter solution for it.

After ripping it I started to attach them to the wall. Could you clarify your question?

@@MrStukov ahh I see, you set the fence to 2 inches for ripping it at the 45 degree angle. Thank you!

@@tonytan0 Actually I take small piece of 4 inch piece and make center cut setting fence by eye, after that I adjust fence and make a test cut again. It was repeatable process until I get ideal center.

After ripping down plywood pieces to 4” Take those 4’s and reduce those in half stripes (strips) making them 2”. Then space out on wall every 6 inches. I personally found that the 2” strips on the wall were just a little light for my personal preference. I found 3” is just about right. Tip: after ea 45* cut sand or cut about an 1/8 of an inch from them. That way they’re not too sharp.
