> Featherboards to hold the wood against the fence

> Extended table on both sides, to fully support the wood before the cut,
> and after the cut. All perfectly uniform to one another.

> A long fence that extends over both table extensions. Holding the wood in
> position before it encounters the blade, and after it encounters the
> blade. The featherboards should be along this long fence.

> Featherboards to hold the wood down against the table, particularly
> against the sawblade.

> Set the saw blade at proper height, do not make it excessive. The blade
> should extend above the wood by 1/2 a tooth throat.

> Use pusher sticks and hooks. Do not go sticking your fingers in there,
> especially as you get the wood thin. Use the pusher sticks to push, and
> the hook stick to pull.

> Stay out of the line of fire.

> Do not work alone.
