maintenance is so important.

The depth gauge rides on the wood
and controls the depth at which the
working corner bites in.
➋
The working corner and side plate
sever the cross grains. This is the
hardest part of the work.
➌
The top-plate cutting angle chisels
out the severed wood fibers,lifting them
up and out of the kerf.
