Working With Wood Books

The table saw is both a simple and versatile machine, often the only saw found in a craftsman’s workshop. In this revised and updated edition of Table Saw Magic, author Jim Tolpin offers in-depth coverage of this remarkable tool, sharing his expert advice and shop-tested techniques for achieving accurate and safe cuts. You’ll also find information about the table saws themselves, how to choose one and the proper accessories to get the job done right, how to maintain your saw and how to work with jigs and fixtures.

Step by step instructions, clear diagrams and full-color photographs take you through many projects, including: rip and crosscut sleds for high-precision cuts, an adjustable dado-spacing fixture, a miter jig with a sliding stop, hold-downs for the rip fence and saw table, a circle-cutting fixture and more.
