- The first of a few videos in which I take advantage of the t-slot fence on my Grizzly G0771Z table saw. Up first: the humble stop block.
A stop block on a table saw fence is really just a safety feature; you should never make a crosscut where the off-cut portion of your workpiece is pressed against the fence and the blade. That could cause kickback. Instead, use a stop block, which attaches to the fence. Push your workpiece over until it contacts the stop block, then make your crosscut. That way the edge of the off-cut piece isn’t touching the fence.
Most stop blocks are just pieces of wood clamped to the table saw fence. I didn’t want to use that method, for two reasons. First, I have a router fence on the other side of my table saw fence. Second, I want to be able to use the full bearing surface of the stop block, and not have the clamp in the way.
I've been researching table saws to upgrade from my DeWalt contractor saw and decided on this model after your good reviews, as well as a few others I have found. Thank you.
Thanks regarding furnishing these types of great information.
