Default Jointer Safety Help

A board held vertically with a "heel" extending down say 1/4". I like one
with two obvious handholds, which helps control the piece. Imagine a plane
with a hook at the trailing end to push the board, and you've got a good
idea. Fierer and other standard texts should have them illustrated. For
the really narrow stuff, pitch it a bit to the left so you can exert down
and fence-hugging pressure.

sure you have push blocks for surfacing, and a push board for edging the
small stuff, and that's about it.



George, What's a push board? (going on the assumption there are no
stupid questions)
