Stand Off Stop Block
When cutting small pieces on the table saw, it’s nice to have a stop. Using the rip fence isn’t a good idea, since the pieces could easily bind and kick back.
Instead, I turned my jointer push block into a standoff block. I set the fence with the push block even with the blade (left photo). For cutting I hook the heel of the block on the front edge of the saw table. The workpiece clears the chamfered corner on the block just before it makes contact with the blade. -Phil Huber Urbandale, Iowa
