I am getting really #&^%#^& off that everytime I need to do a non through cut I have to take off the dang spliter/riving knife. BTW what is the difference, is it just that one moves up and down with the blade and the other doesnt?
Anyway while changing blades on the BT3 is pretty easy removing the guard/splitter assy is a royal PITA!! I really dont want to go the route of removing them completley, so what are my options.
Are you all going to simply shout at me GET A SHARK GUARD!!!
I have never seen one in the flesh, if it fits to the same mounting point as the OEM one wont it have the same issue? I belive the guard is removeable while leaving the knife in place. I may be answering my own question but is it simply that the knife is set at the exact same height as the blade therefore you can make a non through cut with it in place?
What about stopped cuts or is there really no solution here but to remove any form of knife/guard?
All options suggestions welcome including JUST GET A SHARK GUARD!!
