Routers for Router Tables New-Breed Models Spare You the Expense of a Router Lift
Compliments of Fine Woodworking TOOL TEST Routers for Router Tables New-breed models spare you the expense of a router lift BY ROLAND JOHNSON ABOVE-TABLE ADJUSTMENTS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE A table-mounted router can be very versatile. But it’s important to choose a router that’s designed expressly for that purpose. The best allow both bit-height adjustments and bit changes from above the table. A router that makes you reach underneath for these routine adjustments will quickly become annoying to use. 54 FINE WOODWO R K in G Photo, this page (right): Michael Pekovich outers are among the most versatile tools in the shop—the go-to gear Height adjustment Rwhen you want molded edges on lumber, dadoes in sheet stock, mortises for Crank it up. All the tools for adjusting loose tenons, or multiple curved pieces bit height worked well. Graduated that match a template. dials on the Porter-Cable Routers are no longer just handheld and the Triton are not tools. More and more woodworkers keep very useful. one mounted in a table. That gives more precise control over a variety of work, us- ing bits that otherwise would be too big to use safely. A table allows the use of feather- boards, hold-downs, a miter gauge, and other aids that won’t work with a hand- held router. With a table-mounted router, you can create moldings on large or small stock, make raised panels using large bits, cut sliding dovetails, and much more. Until recently, the best way to marry router and table was with a router lift, an expensive device that holds the router and allows you to change bits and adjust cut- ting height from above the table. -

Compound Sliding Miter Saw About
Compound Sliding Miter Saw About Miter saws are saws designed to perform quick accurate crosscuts in materials such as wood and some plastics. The tool shop miter saw is a dual action compound sliding miter saw. This means that it is capable a large cuts up to 4 inches by 12 inches nominal size. The compound feature of the saw allows both miter and bevel cuts to be made at the same time. Miter adjustments are from 50 degrees to the left of square and 60 degrees to the right of square. Bevel adjustments are 45 degrees in either direction of the vertical position. Class Goal The goal of this class is to allow students to become certified safe operators of the tool shop miter saw. This handout along with hands on training will provide the information needed to operate the miter saw in a safe and efficient manner. You must successfully pass both the hands on training and quiz to become fully certified. SAFETY! Shop Safety: • Remember to always wear closed two shoes in the shop area at ALL times. • Always make sure to have long hair tied back and loose clothing secured. • Never leave a machine running unattended.

Manual Drills (Brace Drill, Eggbeater Drill)
Manual Drills (Brace drill, Eggbeater drill) Identify: Head, Handle, Chuck, Bits (drill and screw bits, which are inserted into the chuck) Accompanying Tools: Clamps (usually at least 2), Goggles Safety: ● Wear eye protection ● Clamp material to be drilled securely to a heavy object, with clamps on opposite ends of the wood ● Be cautious of delicate drill bits ● Lay drill carefully on its side when not in use, with bits aimed in from edge of table Operation for drilling holes: ● Clamp material down, with protective layer between material and table if necessary. A second piece of wood is usually sufficient. ● Insert correct bit or choose drill that has correct bit. Chuck is twisted counter-clockwise to loosen jaws that hold bit, clockwise to tighten ● Identify depth of material, hold drill bit on the side of the clamped wood to see how deep it will go, and to ensure that it won’t go into the table. ● Make dot or X on top of wood where hole is to be drilled. ● Hold operating handle with dominant (drawing) hand, other hand holds head or top handle in place. For ambidextrous tinkerers, whichever hand position feels most comfortable to them. ● Rotate handle clockwise to drill into wood. For brace drill, this is a horizontal turning, for eggbeater drill, it is vertical. ● While bit is in wood, do not let go of drill and avoid wiggling. This can break the bit. ● Binding debris can cause overheating of the bit, or make turning the drill difficult. Back out bit and clear debris as necessary ● Back out bit after the desired depth is achieved. -
EASY-TO-USE CHASSIS HEIGHT GAUGE Chassis Height – a Critical Setup Measurement
EASY-TO-USE CHASSIS HEIGHT GAUGE Chassis Height – A Critical Setup Measurement Measuring your critical chassis height has always been a bit awkward. You lie on your stomach on the cold dusty floor and try to hold a tape measure up to the frame. And each time you make a change you must re-measure to be sure you’re not too low (won’t pass tech) or too high (transfers too much weight to the outside tires). Takes all the fun out of setting up your car! Here’s a super easy way to make these measurements. These slick new Chassis Height Checkers make quick and easy work of getting this critical dimension consistently to within 1/16” - without even getting dirty. Simply slide it under the car, raise the tape until it touches the frame, and read the height. Couldn’t be quicker or easier. Here’s how it works. The tool contains a tape measure with a built-in tape lock, a slider with pointer and a black knob to clamp to the tape, and a 0-10” scale. It also has a bearing at the end that changes the direction of the tape from horizontal (parallel to the ground) to vertical to measure height. There are 3 different ways to use it. Pick the one that suits your situation: CAR ON GROUND (NOT ON SCALE PADS): 1. Release the lock on the tape measure and allow it to retract completely. This is 2” in height. Loosen the black knob and slide the pointer to read 2.0”. -

Drill Press Notes Requirements: Proper Eye Protection Must Be Worn—Operate Only with Instructor’S Permission and After Proper Instructions Have Been Received
Drill Press Notes Requirements: Proper eye protection must be worn—operate only with instructor’s permission and after proper instructions have been received. 1. Always use a piece of scrap wood and set the table or stop to keep from drilling into the tabletop. 2. Use a clamp or vise grips to secure/fasten your wood to the table. 3. Make sure that your scrap wood, good wood, and any clamp you are using are the ONLY objects on the table. Other objects can get caught in the machine and cause injuries. 4. Use a “V-block” clamp for C02 cars, round or irregular shaped stock. 5. Select the right size and type of bit. Wood bits for wood; metal bits for metal. 6. Use a center punch for a guide whenever possible. Always use a center punch when drilling into metal or hard woods. 7. Do not panic if the bit gets stuck in the wood. Turn the machine off. When it has completely stopped, remove the bit from your wood. 8. Select the correct drilling speed. For metal or hard woods and large drill bits you should use a slower speed. 9. Always remove the chips from the table after the machine is turned off and is no longer moving. Use a table brush, never your hands. 10. As with any machine, if it is not working properly you should always turn it off, unplug it, and tell a teacher.

In Ground Removable Safety Fence Installation Instructions
IN GROUND REMOVABLE SAFETY FENCE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (READ INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY BEFORE BEGINNING) THE FOLLOWING TOOLS ARE REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION: Tape measure Utility knife Chalk line Rotary hammer drill Pencil 1/4” Hex head bit Extension cords 5/8” SDS Plus masonry drill bit (If using a safety fence drilling guide, an SDS Plus rotary hammer and a 5/8” X 18” SDS Plus bit must be used) Template (included) Scissors Household glue or pvc cement Shop Vac (for cleaning debris out of drilled holes) 1. Decide where you want your fence. When installing In-ground Removable Safety Fencing take these guidelines into consideration: • The fence must isolate the pool area from all exits of the house. • All sides of the pool area should be enclosed by either the In-Ground Removable Safety Fencing and/or another permanent barrier such as a block wall, house, wrought irons fence, etc. • If safety fence is not being used as a total enclosure, and a tie-in to an existing structure is necessary, that structure must be strong, solid and high enough not to allow a child to get around, through or over the structure. • Do not place fence adjacent to another structure that a child may climb upon. This includes raised seating and decorative boulders. • Fence should be a minimum distance away from the pool edge to allow proper maintenance while fence is in use. 2. Determine your starting point. If the run of the fence is going to be straight it is important to snap a chalk line to ensure that the fence remains in a straight line.
