Ok, I'm sure this is perfectly clear to you as the author, but it makes absolutely no sense to me and I've been doing this stuff for over 40 years.
Are you simply suggesting that it is a good practice to clamp your work on saws, if at all possible? ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2007 10:27 AM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Chop saw hold-downs. a serious level of advice here for users of compound mitre, cross cut and radial arm saws. when setting timber in the path for cutting, I would advise strongly the use of 2 f or G cramps to secure the timbers. when lining up the timber to the blade, have the g cramps positioned and slightly slack on the timber and work table so that slight movement is available to lign up the timber to the blade. then one turn of the handles to lock the timber in place. then you have total control of the timber being cut. I also advise the use of 4 inch by 2 inch blocks by 4 inch to add more stability to the boards when cutting as the blade may wrench the timbers apart depending upon the timber being cut. lew [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
