FINISH CARPENTRY TOOLS


A sliding compound saw is set up to miter a length of molding. It is a good
idea to mount the saw on a portable miter stand, which enables you to work at a
comfortable height. The model shown features support arms that can be adjusted to
extend 4 feet on each side of the blade to accommodate long workpieces.

Preparing Stock

Ripping on the table saw


If you are using rough lumber for your finish carpentry projects, start jointing
one face of each board, and then an edge. Next, rip the board to width, making the
second edge parallel to the jointed edge. Set the stock face down on the saw table
and adjust the blade height about ¼ inch above the workpiece. Position the rip fence
for the width of the cut, then feed the stock into the blade, holding it firmly against the
fence (above). Stand slightly to the left of the workpiece and straddle the fence with
your right hand, making certain that neither hand is in line with the blade. Once your
fingers approach the blade guard, use a push stick to complete the cut. (Caution:
Blade guard partially retracted for clarity.)
