Any woodworker who has needed to build a jig for a tricky process knows how frustrating it is to flip through a stack of woodworking books and magazines, searching in vain for just the right setup. Fortunately, this book isn't just another collection of jigs for specific machines. It's the most comprehensive book published on the subject of woodworking jigs and fixtures, with information that's easy to find and apply. Woodshop Jigs & Fixtures focuses on the basic building blocks of all woodworking jigs and fixtures - fences, carriages, tables, stops and templates. This source-book approach allows you to combine ideas to suit your machinery and woodworking needs. Beginners will discover many jigs that can be built directly from the abundant photos and drawings. More advanced woodworkers will find a treasure trove of ideas for custom jigs, as well as construction tips and information on how to use (and where to find) special hardware. Regardless of your abilities, this book will help you create jigs and fixtures that are accurate, safe and a pleasure to use. Contents: • FENCES THAT GUIDE • CARRIAGES THAT SLIDE • TABLES THAT SUPPORT • STOPS THAT SET LIMITS • TEMPLATES FOR SHAPED PARTS • FIXTURES THAT SECURE THE WORK • MATERIALS, HARDWARE AND CONSTRUCTION • SAFETY AND DUST CONTROL |
