Jigs and Fixtures This area will be directed towards the art of designing specific jigs and fixtures. Bob and Rick say, "if the specific operation is to make more than one piece the same size and shape then chances are you need a jig and/or fixtures."

Default Push stick handles

I noticed there is a sale at Oak Park. Does anyone have one of these push stick? How do you fasten it to the wood below?

I got the first DVD which I really enjoyed. Any recommendations of what the second DVD purchase should be? I plan to get them all eventually, but is there one that really stands out?

Thanks

sb

Hi, SB:
I have the handle from OP. The bottom of the handle has a male dovetail on it.
The blocks that you will have to make must have a female dove tail, to fit the handle.
The handle comes with a drawing and info on making some blocks for it. I think the dove tail bit needed is a common 1/2" 14 degree bit. Hope this helps, and welcome to the forum. Woodnut65

SB, if you happen to have the OP's router miter, this would help you put in the dovetail slot for the handle. I don't remember which video shows how to make the "push-block" itself but, it is on one of the video's.

Hope this helps.

Yup, just a sliding dovetail Steve. One of the shows on DVD shows it real well. The Router Projects book has some info on it as well. As far as DVD Series 2 & then 3 that was just released - see this link:
