Important to use the correct bits. Forstner Bit Twist Bit Hole Saw Fret Saw (Scroll Saw): Used to cut and shape light materials such as, MDF and plywood. The general rule: the thicker the material, the slower the machine operator pushes the work against the blade. The blade is always set up with the teeth pointing downwards Jointer: Used for jointing a surface or edge Uses jointer only with the guard in place. Joints in direction of grain. Makes several multiple thin cuts rather than one heavy cut. Planer: Used for surfacing a workpiece Planes in the direction of the grain. Never looks directly into the front or rear opening of the planer when it is in operation. Band Saw: Used to cut and shape light material Guide the work slowly; do not force the work. Avoid backing out from cuts Do not attempt to cut smaller radius than the blade will allow. Sliding Compound Mitre Saw: Makes Standard mitre cuts (90, 45. 22.5 degrees) and Compound mitre cuts (horizontal and vertical angle adjustment). Repeat cuts using a stop to reproduce exact length Waits until saw comes to a complete stop before removing workpiece. Lathe: Used to make spindles Rotates spindle by hand to check clearance before starting
