One day I'll be cool enough to remove every safety feature from my tablesaw

[@markp8295]

Agreed. That made me wince seeing his hands go so close. Even with a riving knife and guard I still wouldn't.

[@craigdoriety9798]

He's just going for the shop teacher look.🙃

[@heather6828]

So set width on the blade 4 inches then do 45 angle cuts

[@user-yt4xu4en5f]

Scares the crap out of me not seeing a riving knife of a splitter at the end of the blade! Nice vid though!

[@MrStukov]

This is 80 y.o. Craftsman 113 Table Saw has't riving knife initially, considering about adding micotic splitter to it

[@breakthroughpsychotherapy3519]

The space between the cleats look smaller than 6”. What is typical?

[@irinagolovina8068]

Замечательно !👍

[@MrStukov]

Спасибо!

[@ericpaz2854]

Are they drilled through the drywall into studs? Or did you use wood as your walls and not drywall?

[@MrStukov]

Plywood strips secured to the studs with a long screws

[@tomunderwood4283]

I notice there is no riving knife or splitter behind the blade to prevent kickbacks. Good luck!

[@MrStukov]

It’s Craftsman 113 from 1950s. It was not equipped with riving knife. May be I’ll try Microjig splitter solution for it.

[@outlandishbottle9279]

I like the idea although I don't think I trust that phone attachment cleat very much 😅
Otherwise it's very good

[@heyb6268]

Strips

[@tonytan0]

What’d you set the fence to, after ripping it to 45degrees?

[@MrStukov]

After ripping it I started to attach them to the wall. Could you clarify your question?

[@MrStukov]

[@tonytan0]

@@MrStukov ahh I see, you set the fence to 2 inches for ripping it at the 45 degree angle. Thank you!

[@MrStukov]

@@tonytan0 Actually I take small piece of 4 inch piece and make center cut setting fence by eye, after that I adjust fence and make a test cut again. It was repeatable process until I get ideal center.

After ripping down plywood pieces to 4” Take those 4’s and reduce those in half stripes (strips) making them 2”. Then space out on wall every 6 inches. I personally found that the 2” strips on the wall were just a little light for my personal preference. I found 3” is just about right. Tip: after ea 45* cut sand or cut about an 1/8 of an inch from them. That way they’re not too sharp.

[@MrSimonmcc]

Strips not stripes.
