Yes, MPC is right about using the cut off splitter and also having it perfectly centered behind the blade. The mount needs to be perfectly centered, not the top. Then bend the top to line up perfectly parallel to the blade. Not as hard as it sounds but the base of the splitter/riving knife needs to be perfectly centered. Usually by eyeball.

mild steel or even aluminum plate 0.063" to 0.090" wide (to fit behind a .093 thin kerf blade.
Not too hard to make yourself... I made one long ago. Let me know if you need some hints. Two sides are square 90 degrees so you have two sides already cut. if you get a rectangular plate. The two slots are not hard if you drill two holes and then cut upwards to meet them.
A jigsaw is all it takes with a metal cutting blade..
You don't need the top slots except to attach lee's blade guard if you have it.
