Auxiliary Fence Construction
This diagram
illustrates a
typical auxiliary fence for
use
with the push block shown on page 84. Cut piece
A out
of
3
⁄
4
inch
thick hardwood
and cut piece B out of
1
⁄
2
inch
thick plywood.
Position
piece
A
along the edge of
piece
B as shown
in the drawing
above, and
attach it using
wood glue and counter-sunk wood screws.
Squares are 1 inch.
To
use
the
auxiliary
fence,
place
it
on
the
saw
with
piece
B
flat
on
the
table
top
and
piece
A against
the left side of the rip fence. Position
the auxiliary
fence so that the front
edge
of piece
B is 1-2 inches
back from the front edge
of the table, and
then clamp
piece
A securely
to the rip fence. Position
the rip fence so that the spacing
between
the left edge of piece B and the blade
is the width you want to cut, and then lock the
rip fence
in place. Slide the
workpiece along the
edge of
piece B
closest to
the
blade.
If your hand
comes within
6 inches
of the blade,
remove your hand
from the workpiece
and use the push block to finish the cut, as shown in the drawing to the left.
