Thanks a lot, Bobl - a scary video, and not just because of the accident. The saw also does not look really trustworthy to me.
Anyways, you certainly gave me something to think about - I will add a...

Thanks, Crowie, much appreciated.

We are from Hamburg, but I also spent some time in other parts of Germany.

Thanks, Bobl.

I had to build a riving knife for the old table saw I am bringing back to life right now.
The original riving knife is short and only shows up behind the saw blade, when the blade is 5..6cm out of...

Yepp, found them already. I also sieved through Google but all I could find are old auction posts where the auctions obviously has long expired. I hope that someone still has theirs...
Thanks!

Thanks! Nice company here :)
