END SHAPING
When end shaping narrow stock, it is important
that at least one half of the workpiece end be in
contact with either the infeed or outfeed fence as
shown in Figure 15.
Use a guide similar to the one shown in Figure 15
which tightly clamps the scrap piece to the
workpiece and provides the necessary width.
SHAPING ALL SIDES
Because cross grain shaping is more likely to create
chipping out end splinters on some woods, it is good
practice to first shape the cross-grain sides. Any chipping
that does occur is taken care of by the with-grain cuts, as
shown in Figure 16.
ON-EDGE SHAPING
If the shaper fence does not firmly support wide stock,
use the existing bolts in the fence to attach a special
rigid high fence as shown in Figure 17.
Note: Be sure the bolt holes are
countersunk in the special fence.
WARNING:
End shaping a narrow workpiece without a special guide
could result in the workpiece rocking into the cutterhead causing minor, or major,
personal injury.
