The template for routing the

pull
provides

the right amount of

only remaining

has
to

with
how they re

To join the side frames to the four web

used a simple tongue and groove
joint. This joint requires cutting four
stopped I OO\ (>:;on each frame.
The key to success with these grooves i.

$ible to keep the cabinet and the drawer

positions shown in Fig. ~.
To keep this groove fromshowing onthe
front edge of the side frames. be sure to
start it and stop it 1/. bom the outside
edge of

frames, .00 fig. ;;.
Note: Since the frames are clamped
together to rout the grooves you have to
make a double-stopped groove. This
means plunging the router to start the cut

One more note about using this method.
After each groove is routed anc1the guide
fence is moved, try not to move the damps
that hold the frames together. This
will
keep the frames from .hifting as each

\Vhen cUlting these grooves. the best
approach iSIOcenter them 01 1 the thickness
of the rails and stiles. Why? the grooves
are otr-(-enter. then the tenens have to be
off eente.' by the same amount - and
that's diffcult to control. But ifthe grooves
re centered. it s much e sier to cut
centered tenons to match.
Sf:T llP C~'T.To set up the saw for the
grooves, raise lhe blade to a height of
.
(1 use carbide-tipped rip blade lhat pro
duces a nat bottomed kerf.) Then adjust
the fence solhe blade cuts somewhere near
the middle of the stock. (Use a trial piece to
get up the eut.)
TRIAL Ct:TS.Make one cut with the X
side against the fence. Then nip it around
(so the X side is away from the fence) and
make another cut, This will produce a
groove lhal's exactly centered on [he
thickness of the stock.
CIIECK\\ 11.lTlJ.Now check the width of
the groove on the plywood panel. The
groove, at this point. should
be
too
narrow
to fit over tbe
panel .
That's good. because
you want to gradually sneak up on the
width of the groove.
Re-adjust the fence (moving it 8\\ ay
from the blade just
8
lad), and make two
more euts the same way. Then check the
groove on the plywood again. Repeat this
procedure until the groove has a loose fric
tion fil on the plywood.
When the groove on the trial piece
fits
[he plywood, goahead and cut the grooves
on the rails and stiles.

important is because it defines when the

usually
if
there's any confusion about how
and when the rule applies, it's because the
last half

the fenee and miter gauge together to
make
a
through cut is that it produces
a
eut-eff (waste) piece that fall. between the
fence and the blade, 'With the vibration of
the saw. the cut-off piece immediately ro
tate' catty-cornered jw,t enough to
bind
with the blade. Then it's violently thrown
back
toward
lhe
operator.
O ne method that's cemmon ly suggested
as safe for through cut. is to use a stop
block attacbed to the fence ahead of the
blade. \\'e feel this method gives a false
sense of safety. Although it provides a
small space between the cut-off and the
fence, t h i : . : . space is usually too narrow to
prevent the cut-off from rotating diagon-
9U, and binding between the fence and the
blade, resulting in a nasty kickback.
There's another method thaI [

is
more accurate (and safer) to make through
cuts. The method
I
ise incorporates using
.(01) block at the end of the workpiece
ppoS1l~of the b la de . T his is nccomplished
by attaching the stop block to either
all
auxiliary
fence
on t he miter gauge (as
shown in Tips and Techniques, Wood,mil
No. 2 1 ) . or on a panel cuttingjig(shown in
\1',mdsmifJr
No. 22).
The advantage of this method is that
constant pressure can be applied nj(1lins

there are time. when honinl{ the sole of a

Just recently we found what may be a
good solution to this
problem. \Ve
received
a copy of the Wi8CaJl$il l Woodworker, a
ewRietter about the current events at the
Punkin Hollow Wood and Tool store in
P ew au kee, 'V iS C Q ns Ul.
In the newsletter, they describe how
they '-o - machine the soles on new Record
planes to obtain a much higher level of
accuracy than
eve:n
lhe factory ca n pro-
vide. According to Punkin Hollow. they
can
machine their new Reconl plane. to
within .0002 of absolute natn('ss on their
soles, and perfectly square sides. The fin-
ish produced is close to a 12O-grit sand
paper finish.
One of the nicest aspects of this
OSt
teniag service is that they'll Ilauen used
Record planes (as well as ()thpl'
hrands)
to
the same tolerances. But because the true
ness is guaranteed, they also reserve the
right
to
return any plane they fecI cannot
be
Ilattened within these tolerances.
Costs for this service range from $16.50
for. 04~ Record plane (10
long)
to S22.5O
for
a
07
Record
jointer plane (22
long).
