CONSTRUCTING A FEATHERBOARD
Fig. 47, illustrates dimensions for making a typical featherboard. The material which the featherboard is constructed
of, should be a straight piece of wood that is free of knots and cracks. Featherboards are used to keep the work in
contact with the fence and table and help prevent kickbacks. Clamp the featherboards to the fence and table so that
the leading edge of the featherboards will support the workpiece until the cut is completed. Use featherboar
ds for all
non “thru-sawing” operations where the guard and spreader assembly must be removed (see Fig. 48). Always replace
the guard and spreader assembly when the non thru-sawing operation is completed.
