I always seem to get kickbacks or as I call them spit backs when I am cutting a very thin pice off or when the board is narrower than the blade is... like cross-cutting a 1x1. This is of course why a tablesaw isn't the best for cross-cutting, but it's all I have. ----- Original Message ----- From: John Schwery To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, June 02, 2007 8:24 AM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Further adventures with the shop smith.
Since I have never seen a Shop Smith, I don't know what facilities it has for anti-kickbacks. The only trouble I have had with kickbacks with my table saw was when I removed the guard, with its anti-kickback levers. earlier, Max Robinson, wrote: >I finished cutting the boards today.
