    Riving knife with crosscut sled

    The way I look at it is you have 3 options: 1. Use the sled without the riving knife 2. Buy a second riving knife and cut it down smaller Keith Brown did similar - 3. Cut through the sled once without the riving knife, then with either a saw, router, chisels etc, extend the kerf cut in the...
