Dewy is on a distinguished road


The first thing I did after buying my table was to try jointing.
I set the cutter level with the outfield side of the table and tried a few passes.
The jointer fence could not have been parallel with the infeed fence as no matter how many times I tried I could not get the edge straight.
This was probably as a result of the cheapish table having a number of different things on it which only paid lip service to doing what they were intended to do.
I soon made my own fence which works far better than the one supplied.
I also treated myself to a bench jointer to straighten boards and it was worth every penny.
