I Can Do That


3 Make the second cut with the blank’s
outside face against the fence. Raise
the blade to meet the fi rst cut
and set the fence
at^3 / 8 ".

face, leaving a^1 / 8 " wide edge on the
top. Then, set the fence and orient
the blank inside-face down. Then
complete the cut by making several
shallow passes.
2 Create the^3 / 8 " deep rabbet with
two tablesaw cuts. First, cut a^3 / 8 "
deep kerf on the inside face. Next,
set the fence so this cut leaves a^1 / 8 "
shoulder between the rabbet and
the chamfer.
