Stock Preparation

Always make sure that any stock you plan on cut- ting is clean and free of nails, staples, or embed- ded stones.

Keep in mind that precision cuts require a more extended preparation process than rough cuts.

To prepare the workpiece for a precision cut:

1.Surface plane the workpiece on a joint- er—The concave face of the workpiece should be planed flat on a jointer.

2.Surface plane the workpiece on a thick- ness planer—The opposite face of the workpiece should be planed flat with a thick- ness planer.

3.Edge joint the workpiece on a jointer

The concave edge (viewed from end-to-end) of the workpiece should be edge jointed flat on a jointer. This flat edge will glide along the fence rollers during the resaw operation.
