MAKING PUSH STICK AND PUSH
BLOCK
Make the push stick 1 using a piece of 1 x 2
(19x38mm) as shown (Fig. 38). For proper
use of push stick see page 33.
Make the push block 2 using pieces of 3/8"
(8.7mm) plywood 3 and 3/4" (19mm) hard-
wood 4 (Fig. 39). The push block is to be
used in combination with the auxiliary fence
only. For proper use of push block see page
34.
The small piece of wood, 3/8" x 3/8" x 2-1/2"
(9.5 x 9.5 x 63.5mm), should be GLUED to
the plywood... DO NOT USE NAILS. This is to
prevent dulling the sawblade in the event you
mistakenly cut into the push block.
Position the handle in the center of the ply-
wood and fasten together with glue and
woodscrews.
Use a push stick whenever the rip fence is 2
inches (50 mm) or more from the blade. Use
a push block when the operation is too nar-
row to allow the use of a push stick. For
proper use, see page 33.
Both a push stick or block should be used in
the place of the user's hand to guide the ma-
terial only between the rip fence and blade.
When using a push stick or push block, the trail-
ing end of the board must be square. A push
stick or block against an uneven end could slip
off or push the work away from the rip fence.

MAKING AUXILIARY FENCE

Make one using pieces of 3/8" (8.7mm) ply-
wood 3 and 3/4" (19mm) hardwood 4. Fasten
together with glue and woodscrews (Fig. 40).
NOTE: Since the push block 2 is used with
the auxiliary fence 5, the 4-3/4" (120.6mm)
dimensions must be held identical on both
the pieces.

MAKING A FEATHERBOARD

Figure 41 illustrates dimensions for making a
typical feather board. It should be made from
a straight piece of wood that is free of knots
or cracks.
Kerf 5 should be about 1/4" (6.35mm) apart
(Fig. 41).
