I haven't done the pin though I do currently use an insert
with a 3/4" high maple splitter glued in. So far, knocking
wood, so good. I do like the Grip Tite feature of being
able to switch between the 3/32" and 1/8" pins.
'Sides, it would be easier to align than a glued in fin
splitter. And hell, it's only $7.

yeah, I have always been baffled at the splitter madness; removable
splitters, blah blah. Considering how easy it is to make an insert when
you have a router and a template (for some of the cost of those
splitters, you could BUY a cheapo router), and the fact it takes 30
seconds to change inserts, I though, jeez, idiots.
But I gotta admit, the stage of fitting a wooden splitter is a royal
pain in the ass and last time it did take me two tries

First one had
the *^&*^% thing on a slant.
So, for $7, I just might order a few of em...if I can find an easy
mail-order place that carries them and ships to Canada for a reasonable
price. It looks like a great idea to me.
