Cutting notches
I have a reasonable number of notches to be cut into 100 x 47 timbers
Want to cut cross slots 30mm deep so timbers will slot over some 200 x 47 beams, good enough for glue joints. Want to do the job neatly, and I have 28 of them to do. I notice that whenever they need to do this sort of thing on any of the US shows (New Yankee Workshop for example) the use a Dado blade in a bench saw. I'm pretty sure you can't fit a Dado blade to most domestic saw benches (I have a JCB model) only the large commercial machines. What is the neatest & consistent way of doing these ........ I know I could mark out, use saw table to make shoulder cuts and chisel out the rest ... but this will be slow and probably not end up as neat as I want. I do have a Router table with a Trend T7 ... but not sure if there is an easy way to use that. Certainly don't have a 47mm wide bit, so it would require moving wood and bit several times - possibly end up inaccurate. Any tips & hints ? |
