I am almost ashamed to ask this.
On the other hand, if I do not ask at some point, I suppose that I will never learn.
:eusa_booh
Anyways...
I have always done more refinishing and remodeling..so close cuts in wood were usually good enough.
I knew that furniture would be a different story.
And I recently bought a Ridgid TS3650 saw so I figured that cutting plywood would be a ton easier. Well I guess I figured wrong.
I was unable to rip the full sheet of plywood on the tablesaw. (I am trying to build a large bookcase)
I had to break out the skillsaw and make rough rips.
I then ran the rips through the saw to bring them down to size and to straighten the edges.
Even with running the rips through the saw, I found that the board wanted to creep away from the fence....and this with me almost on the side of the table pushing to keep it snug.
What is the secret to keeping the wood snug on the fence?...especially with long strips of wood?
Thanks
