Kerf should be about 1/4 inch apart.
Fig. 54, 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, as shown in Fig. 55, 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. An
8 inch high flat board can be clamped to the rip fence and the featherboard can be clamped to the 8 inch high board.
WARNING:
Use featherboards for all non “thru-sawing” operations where the guard and splitter assembly
must be removed. Always replace the guard and splitter assembly when the non thru-sawing operation is
completed.
