Bevel Cut

A cutting operation made with the table at any angle other than 90 °to the blade.

Crosscut

A cutting or shaping operation made across the grain of the workpiece.

Compound Cut

A compound cut is a cut made using a miter angle and a bevel angle at the same time.

Freehand (for scroll saw)

Performing a cut without the workpiece being guided

by a fence or miter gage. Work must supported by the table.

Gum

A sticky, sap based residue from wood products.

Kerf

The material removed by the blade in a through cut or the slot produced by the blade in a nonthrough or partial cut.

Leading End

The end of the workpiece pushed into the cutting tool first.

Nonferrous Metal

Metal that does not contain iron; such as aluminum, brass, and copper.

Push Stick

A device used to feed the workpiece through the saw blade during narrow ripping type operations and helps keep the operator's hands well away from the blade.

Resaw

A cutting operation to reduce the thickness of the workpiece to make thinner pieces.

Resin

A sticky, sap base substance that has hardened.

Ripping

A cutting operation along the length of the workpiece. Saw Blade Path

The area directly in line -- over, under, behind, or in front of the blade. As it applies to the workpiece, that area which will be, or has been, cut by the blade.

Set

The distance that the tip of the saw blade tooth is bent (or set) outward from the face of the blade.

SPM

Strokes per minute. Used in reference to blade movement.

Throw-Back

Throwing of a workpiece in a manner similar to a kickback. Usually associated with a cause other than the kerf closing, such as a workpiece not being against the fence, being dropped into the blade, or being placed inadvertently in contact with the blade.

Through Sawing

Any cutting operation where the blade extends completely through the thickness of the workpiece.

Workpiece

The item on which the cutting operation is being done. The surfaces of a workpiece are commonly referred to as faces, ends, and edges.

Worktable

The surface on which the workpiece rests while performing a cutting or sanding operation.
