In many instance this is for decorative purposes but it can also be to make a joint or fitting such as a raised panel.
- Page 10 Please Note: Some workpieces may be too big to fit inside either the Top Clamps or the Feather board, i.e. larger than 90x50mm. Simply remove the clamp/Feather board from the table. The function of the clamps is twofold; to hold the workpiece securely against the cutter, whilst keeping the hands well away from it.

To do these jobs a sliding mitre guide is used which runs in the aluminium slot across the front of the table.
