6. TY oO SHOP FOX Resawing Resawing is the process of cutting a thick piece of stock into one or more thinner pieces Bandsaws are ideal for resawing and the process is fairly easy and safe A table saw is not intended for resawing and the process is difficult and extremely dangerous Resawing on the table saw often binds the blade causing kickback The risk of kickback increases relative to the depth of a cut Kickback is more dangerous when resawing on a table saw because the anti kickback devices and blade guard must be removed leaving no protection between your hands and the saw blade Kickback can pull the operator s hands into the blade or the operator or bystanders may be hit by flying stock DO NOT resaw on a table saw without using a resaw barrier DO NOT resaw on a table saw with out wearing a full face shield The following instructions describe how to build a resaw barrier add an auxiliary fence to your standard fence and more safely perform resawing operations Note This table saw can only resaw wood that is less than 8 tall Resaw Barrier The resaw barrier shown in Figure 55 holds the workpiece vertical keeps the workpiece aligned with the fence and keeps your hands away from the blade 38 W1761 W1762 12 Table Saw with Riving Knife AWARNING Resawing on a table saw increases the chances of kickback Serious injury can be caused by kickback Kickback is a high speed expulsi
