Hi John,
Most, maybe all table saws will permit use of the rip fence on either side
of the blade. Usually only a few inches on one side though. If there is an
extension on both sides then usually the same bar that secures the extension
also extends the reach of the fence. In most cases you coul
Hi John and Dale,
My old table saw had the fence only on the right side of the blade. I had a
machinist make bars so that I could use the fence on the left side. That
saw also had a left tilting blade that I really liked.
I had to occasionally use the fence on the left side because of one

I don't understand why there is a 3-degree bevel for jointing at 90-degrees.

I don't understand this at all. How does this work?

Hi
My table saw has a miter gage that the bar is 90 degrees on either side.
What this means is that the miter gage can be lifted straight up So when the
part that you hold the stock to is pulled back past the edge of the table it
falls down and the bar on the gage comes out of the groove. This limi

Hi John,
I have this and haven't used it in a long time. I actually left it sit
because I really goofed with the paper. When done I should have removed the
paper or when I wanted to change I should have warmed up the glue for easy
removal. I left it on for a few months and really had a mess when
Yes, some miter gauges consist only of a bar usually 3/4-inches wide,
3/8-inches thick and with 90-degrees sides so that it can be lifted up directly
out of the miter gauge slot.
Other miter gauges slots have a sliding dovetail configuration so that the
miter gauge bar can only be slid in from
I hope that I can explain a little better.
The disk has one side flat like any other sanding disk. The other side has a
3 degree rise starting from the outer edge towards the center.
Now when you install this disk and tilt your blade to 3 degrees, one very
small portion of the sanding disk is at
Ok, thanks. I understand how this makes the sanding disk only sand at one
small location on the edge of the board. I still don't understand how this
turns the table saw into a jointer. A jointer straightens and squares two
adjacent faces of a board to each other. If you use the rip fence to

is thicker at the bottom.

Many of the newer table saws now have a 'T' slot milled in the surface.
There is a wheel set into a slot at the front end of the mitre bar that is
pivoted on the vertical axis and projects beyond the edge of the bar which
runs in the under cut channel of the mitre slot. A bolt removes this wheel

So you have a nail to drive... what are your options? Naturally, the first that
probably comes to mind is the trusty old hammer (in its many variations).
Next on the list is probably the pneumatic nail
When I was helping a friend re moddle his house we ran into some old plaster
that we could not drive a nail into because it was just too hard and would
just bend the nail.
For these types of stubborn materials what we found was a gaget that is toob
shaped and in shourt you put the nail in one side
I am almost sure that between the two of you guys, that even without my
cooperation, I'm destined to learn something.
Great thanks due to all.

Robert, I have referred to what you described as a concussion nailer.
Remington is one of the manufactures who makes one. I personally have the
smaller of the two that I know of and it uses 22 blanks for the charges. There

hi robert
yes i have one of those tools.
i love it
the charges for it are 22 short blanks.
they have them in different sizes of charge to drive the nails harder or
softer.
i have used it to nail door frames on to concreet.
one bang and it is stuck for ever.
