Outfeed & Support Tables
One of the best accessories for improving the safety and
ease of using a table saw is simply placing a large table
(outfeed table) behind the saw to catch the workpiece
(see Figure 81). Additionally, another table to the left
of the saw (support table) can also help support large
workpieces so they can be cut safely and accurately.

outfeed tables.

Sled
A crosscut sled (see Figure 82) is a fantastic way to
improve the safety and accuracy of crosscutting on the
table saw. Most expert table saw operators use a crosscut
sled when they have to crosscut a large volume of work,
because the sled offers substantial protection against
kickback when crosscutting.
