    Thanks for a great video. I just made myself a crosscut sled from some scrap plywood and had much better results than my first attempt at a tenon where I hogged out the excess sideways.

    I have had very little luck cutting precise tenons or tongues with a dado set. I simply struggle to precisely set the depth, and I'm not sure my jobsite saw which lacks a depth lock of any kind doesn't walk itself down under the weight/vibration/stock pressure of the dado stack.
    Also, my fence leans slightly toward the blade, so the shoulders won't line up correctly if the stock isn't square. The solution to this is to use the narrow extension, or to use a stop on the miter gauge/sled instead.

    The position of the toggle clamp on this jig makes me queasy. Not sure it is the best recommendation to use that with your hand a couple of inches above a running blade as it would be quite easy for your hand to slip off.

    • @jasonbarile2014

      Saw that too. I definitely would have turned off the saw before adjusting the work piece.

    • @conceptinterface
      @conceptinterface 2 роки тому +2

      Right! Pushing on a handle that snaps into place, with the running blade in the same direction you're pushing -- little more than an inch away? Super dangerous.

    can a sliding compounding mitre saw be used (with a depth stop) to cut out the mortise in a 4inch square beam 1.5m long ? i need to make an accurate cross joint in two timbers, 90deg to eachother. if so, which sliding mitre saw and which blade is best ?

    Chris, I had always been warned: never use both the miter gauge and rip fence to make a cut on the table saw. Is this really okay to do for cutting tenons?

    • @kryptik0
      @kryptik0 4 роки тому +8

      The only exception to that rule is when a cut is not through like here. Then it's okay to use both the miter gauge and the rip fence together.

    I used the dado method for my tenons. However the shoulder come out uneven. One is longer than the other. I've checked my miter and fence for square. Still have the problem. Any idea as to the problem?

    • @rockler
      @rockler  Рік тому

      Possible the wood is slipping along the fence when cutting. Maybe add some sandpaper strips on the fence to prevent from slipping.

    Isn't against the safety rules to use the rip fence as a guide when cross cutting?

    • @kevinvernon3600
      @kevinvernon3600 7 років тому +3

      If you're making a through cut, yes. If not cutting all the way through the piece, as here, then it's perfectly fine.

      The rip fence can be used, but will required more care with blade set-up.

    It is not the most difficult cuts being made on a table saw but the most common, seemingly easy cuts where safety falls apart.
    The first rule of safety in a shop begins with a GOOD first aid kit on hand... The only 100% safe use of a table saw is to lower the blade below the table and pull the plug out of the wall...So lets get a little real here..Crap happens and no one is exempt.

  • @eitantal726

    oops. you're not supposed to use a miter and a fence at the same time

    • @rockler
      @rockler  10 місяців тому +2

      When making through cuts, yes. But in this process there are no pieces are being removed from the stock, so there is no chance of them being caught between the blade and fence. You will see at 3:51 into the video when the pieces are fully removed, they are released freely to the left of the blade.

    This is useless demonstrating tenons on an 18 inch board. People need to make them on 8 foot board ends- try showing how to do that.

      Link to your video trying to help people please. You think it's more common to cut tenons on an 8ft piece than an 18" piece? I would argue showing tenons on the 8ft piece is a "useless demonstration".
