3.Glue the end of the 3" board, then clamp the boards at a 90° angle with the larger board in the vertical position as shown in Figure 55.

4.Secure the joint with the wood screws.

Auxiliary Fence

The auxiliary fence is necessary if you are resawing a workpiece that is taller than it is wide. It should be no less than 12" shorter than the board to be resawn.

Components Needed for the Auxiliary Fence:

Hardwood or Plywood 34" x (Height) x 4014"......1

Flat Head Screws M8-1.25 x 25 (Not included) .4

Hex Nuts M8-1.25 (Included)

4

Tools Needed for the Resaw Barrier:

Table Saw

1

Jointer and Planer

Recommended

Clamps

2 Minimum

Drill and Drill Bits

1

To build the auxiliary fence:

 

1.Cut a 34" thick board 4014" long, and cut a height no less than 12" shorter than the board to be resawn. If you are using hardwood, cut the board oversize, then joint and plane the board to the correct size to make sure the board is square and flat.

Note: Only use furniture grade plywood or kiln dried hardwood to prevent warping.

2.Pre-drill and countersink four holes 114" from the bottom of the board.

3.Pull an end cap off of the standard fence, then remove four hex nuts, flat washers, hex bolts and one side of the fence facing from the fence body.

4.Thread the flat head screws through the auxiliary fence and into the hex nuts in the standard fence body, and tighten securely as shown in Figure 56.

Resawing Operations

The table saw motor is pushed to its limits when resawing. If the motor starts to bog down, slow down your feed rate. Motor overloading and blade wear can be reduced by using a ripping blade. Ripping blades are designed to clear the sawdust quickly.

Components Needed for Resawing:

 

Zero Clearance Insert

1

Ripping Blade 12"

1

Clamps

2

Shop Made Auxiliary Fence

You may experience kickback during this procedure. Stand to the side of the blade and wear a full face shield to prevent injury when resawing.
