Hi folks... Another thread on push sticks /blocks
I have a Dewalt Jobsite saw. (Just call me Tamra 3X3CUSTOM junior ... she's got a Sawstop now....lucky her )
I'm making an outfeed table for it, have already made a short depth infeed "apron" for it.
I'm in the process of making push blocks and sticks for it.
For the block I'm using a template I found on the William Ng website, the parallelogram design push block
(I don't know if that's his own design but that is where I first saw it)
So what is the narrowest push block (or stick) that is safe?
I've made some from 3/4 and 1/2 birch ply. Can I go to 1/4?
Also when making these of any thickness, is there a reason to use birch ply rather than MDF?
Thanks
