FEATHERBOARDS AND PUSH STICKS
CONSTRUCTING A
FEATHERBOARD
Fig. 23, illustrates dimensions for making a typical
featherboard. The material which the featherboard is
constructed of, should be a straight piece of wood that
is free of knots and cracks. Featherboards are used to
keep the work in contact with the fence and table and
help prevent kickbacks. Clamp the featherboards to the
fence and table so that the leading edge of the
featherboards will support the workpiece until the cut is
completed.
Use featherboards for all non "thru-
sawing" operations where the guard and spreader
assembly cannot be used (see Fig. 22). Always replace
the guard and spreader assembly when the non thru-
sawing operation is completed.
