Daed Toolworks Miter Planes The miter plane (or 'mitre' if you drink tea instead of coffee) is a format which has unfortunately gained relatively little popularity in America. In both British and Continental woodworking, however, these planes have a long history, with infilled metal miters dating back well over 400 years. While there is much debate as to what their original purpose might have been, there are two points that are quite clear. First - that these planes were used for much more than just shooting end grain, which is the limited use we tend to ascribe to miter planes today. Second - that it was the infilled miter plane that served as the inspiration and direct descendant of the infill smoothers and panel planes that developed so fully in the British Isles of the 19th century.

HOCK TOOLS -- Blades and Such for Planes and More. Auxiliary Table Saw Fence and Accessories. The Fence Adapting a pattern from ShopNotes magazine, Volume 10, Issue 60, I made an auxiliary fence for my table saw. It consists of a 3/4 inch baltic birch, three-sided case to fit over the main Biesemeyer table saw fence. The purpose of the auxiliary fence is to hold the many accessories necessary for various table saw cuts: "burying a dado blade to make a rabbet cut, using a featherboard to hold down a workpiece to the table surface, using a taller fence for support in cutting wider or taller workpieces, and offsetting the workpiece from the fence with a stop block.

Each of these accessories is easily added to the auxiliary fence using t-track and toilet bolt/knobs. The adaptation that I made to the original plan involves the method used to hold the auxiliary fence tightly against the Biesemeyer fence. The Accessories The feather board accessory attaches to the top rail of the auxiliary fence. The dado fence and tall fence are similar in design but very different in use.

Personal Statement My love of woodworking is not only for the beauty and mystery of the material, but in the inventing of new techniques and processes to create objects.The materials I use relate to the objects I make. At times, a piece of salvaged wood will become a starting point of design. Other times, a design will call for a piece of wood with incredible grain. Using plain wood, like birch allows me to approach the object as a three dimensional canvas.

Here, I can apply a variety of surface design techniques to express an idea.My work tells stories from my life, places I’ve been, people I’ve met, architecture, our environment. These stories are interwoven into the objects I create. Biography Michael is comfortable using any media that serves his purpose.
