Tips And Troubleshooting
I will try to bring as many tips and troubleshooting guides, that through the years I have learned. I would like to share them with the younger woodworkers and with the site visitors.
A Simple Center Finder:.- Cut a 90" wedge out of a 7 by 12 inch piece of 3/4 inch piece of 3/4 inch plywood. Screw a 12 inch-long 1 by 2 to the piece so that one long edge of the 1 by 2 bisects the wedge at 45 degree. To use the center finder, seat the work piece in the wedge and use the 1 by 2 as a guide to draw a line across the diameter of the work piece. Rotate the work piece 90 degrees and draw a second line across it. The two lines will intersect at the center of the workpiece.

Small Offcuts:- Crosscutting on the tablesaw is usually a much safer operation that ripping. But even the simple process of making a series of small offcuts can be dangerous. While the front half of the blade is turning down towards the table, the back end is lifting up, and if one of those offcuts wanders back there and makes contact, it might get launched across the room. Always keep a push-stick handy on the waste side of the blade, and move each cut piece safely out of the way.

Solid Backs:- Some styles of furniture call for cabinet backs to be made of individual solid boards, instead of a frame-and panel construction or a simple sheet good-back nailed in a rabbet. There are several ways to arrange the boards. For a rustic look, you can use mixed widths, while a finished look would call for equal sizes. You can simply butt the boards together, but there will inevitably be gaps as the wood moves seasonally. To eliminate the gaps, the traditional choices are tongue-and-groove or shiplap joints. The tongue-and-groove method requires you to route a groove one -third of the stock thickness in the center of the right edge of each board, and cut a corresponding tongue on each left edge. The tongue can be cut on the tablesaw, but the groove is most easily cut with a sharper or a router table setup. For a joint, you can cut entirely on the tablesaw; the shiplap is ideal. Simply use a dado setup, or multiple passes, to remove the outer half of the stock on each right edge, and the inner half on the left edge.

Straight Shooting Drill Jig:- You may not face this problem often, but when you need to drill
a hole nice and straight but the part is too big to fit on the drill press,here's what to do. Make this
nifty little jig. It's about 1 1/2 in. tall by 2 in wide. Line up your drill bit in the corner of the jig and get
a pretty straight hole every time. The jig looks like this fig:
