    I could never imagine using a table saw without a riving knife. It drastically increases the danger of cutting for me. Do you have the ¼-20 hole underneath the insert plate where the original knife was mounted? It might be worth trying to make an aluminum angle riving knife or short splitter in there somehow. I got lucky, and my blade alignment is a hair under .001" on my saw.. and even with that, I've had riving knives save me many a time (and i use one-way roller hold downs, as well as one-way roller type featherboards. I can't afford to take any chances.

  • @carterscustomrods
    @carterscustomrods 7 месяцев назад

    Is that the 315? I just got the 315.228310, brand new, for $50. But no fence rails. It has the new dust cover riving knife (but i removed the cover part and kept the knife. But its aggravating so im looking for a better way. However, I'm not a fan of splitters... so i might nake my own dust cover that mounts to the single ¼-20 under the plate. With that said, im liking the aluminum aspect. I really like the version from Infinity... but its ½ the price I paid for a new fence/rails lol... so its not easy to pull the trigger and buy one.

    Instead of manually eyeballing the tap straight, a lot of taps have a hole at the top, you can put a pin in the chuck of your drill press and center up on the tap for a guaranteed straight hole

    Do not underestimate the value of a full face shield if you are cutting up lots of metal. I once had a cutoff disc break and it embedded a shard of blade halfway through my face shield. If i hadnt been wearing it, id have a lot less lip than i do now.

I changed the brushes I didn't even know brushes existed in this thing. It's always good to have a friend that lives up north and they have to depend on themselves to fix things so he told me about the brushes and I changed them in the Dremel was back to his old self but you mentioned a coupling I'm going to be dumb here and admit that I don't know what that is and could you please tell me in a comment❤

    Activator does NOT make the bond stronger. It makes it weaker, but it sets much faster. The strongest bond is to use no activator, but takes much longer to cure.
