Hi folks, this novice again posting for the second time today :mrgreen:
Picked up a second hand SIP 10" table saw, model 01321, looks ok, picked it up fairly cheap. Will need a new blade so was having a look at it and noticed it hasn't got a riving knife in amongst the other parts.
Now I know there's some out there that probably don't use them as they were using saws long before these came out. But not having that much experience with table saws I feel I should have one. Trouble is I can't find this particular spare part anywhere! Phoned the official spare parts delaer which said they don't have any, no luck on eBay etc. What should I do??
I could make one but that's more hassle than its worth I'm thinking. Could I buy one made for a different model? Surely there's knives out there that cover a 10" blade with 3mm kerf which also gives a clearance of 5mm?? It would just be the fitting that would be different right?
Cheers!
Steve
