| Adam | November 27th, 2006 08:24 PM November 27, 2006 Jigs and Fixtures One of the first shop made tools for many table saws is a setup called a "sled dog". More accurate work is possible for this two-slot referenced device and cross-cutting wide work is also safer using this setup. There is the standard 90 degree, right-angle standard sled dog, and a special purpose 45 degree mitre cutting sled, that make accurate picture framing a breeze. The adding of an extension piece of wood to your miter gage will get the work piece closer to the blade and additional support while cutting long pieces. A quick look at Table Saw specialty books will show how the above, and many other accessories, can be constructed. Taunton Press, publisher of both Fine Woodworking and Fine Homebuilding magazines is an excellent source of woodworking/ DIY reference material. |
