NOTE: Tighten wing nut just enough to clamp workpiece in
position. OVERTIGHTENING wing nut could cause binding in tim
sliding motion of push block, which in turn may result in variations
andlor steps in thefinished tenon surface when cut. SeeFig, #25.
6. Slide workpiececlose to the bit and adjust unitized fence and
the router as described before,so that outer-most cutting edge of
