CUTTING AIDS AND ACCESSORIES

(continued)

AUXILIARY RIP FENCE FACING

Use an auxiliary rip fence facing when needed for

special cuts, such as ripping material that is thin

enough to slide under the rip fence provided with

your saw, or when a taller rip fence is necessary to

complete your cut. To add an auxiliary wood facing

to one or both sides of the rip fence, select a piece

of wood with smooth surfaces, Attach the wood to

the rip fence with two clamps. (see Figure 32) For

most work, 3/4-inch (19mm) or 1-inch (25mm) stock

is suitable.

PUSH BLOCK

1. Select a piece of wood about 4-inches wide,

6-inches long and 1- to 2-inches thick (a cutoff

from a 2 by 4 makes a good blank for a push

block).

2. Drill a hole in the block and glue in a dowel

to use as a handle (you can angle the hole to

provide a more comfortable grip on the handle).

3. Glue a piece of rough or soft material such as

sandpaper or rubber to the bottom of the block

to grip the workpiece (old mouse pads work

well). See Figure 34.

AUXILIARY MITER GAUGE FACING

FIGURE 32

FIGURE 34

FIGURE 33

An auxiliary miter gauge facing is used to increase

the surface area of the miter gauge face.

If desired, you can fit the miter gauge with an

auxiliary wood facing that should be at least 1-inch

(25mm) higher than the maximum depth of cut, and

at least as wide as the miter gauge.

This auxiliary wood facing can be fastened to the

front of the miter gauge by using two wood screws

through the holes (A) provided in the miter gauge

body and into the wood facing. See Figure 33.

Make sure the screws are long enough to secure

the facing, but do not extend all the way through

the wood.
