This device helps to hold the workpiece against a machine fence or tool surface due to its design.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many inaccuracies and errors arise when using power tools to cut materials. These errors are typically due to mechanical vibration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, they are often very difficult to manage or correct. As a rule of thumb, the feather board is a power tool add-on that helps you avoid inaccurate cuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The evolution of power tools has put forward the need for safety when using such machines. The feather board also offers protection due to its modern design for protecting against kickbacks.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/1.jpg\" alt=\"Featherboard on a table saw.\" class=\"wp-image-4232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Figure 2: Featherboard on a table saw.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"12-what-is-the-purpose-of-the-feather-board\"><strong>1.2 What is the purpose of the feather board?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Featherboard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">feather board<\/a> is famous for two essential purposes, namely;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"to-hold-down-your-workpiece\"><strong> To hold down your workpiece<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>A vital application of your feather board is to hold your workpiece tightly. This particular functionality is integral to the type and quality of cut you can make on your workpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Often, some users have to carry out precision tasks on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/woodworking-table-saws.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">table saws<\/a>. These precision tasks usually require proper handling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As such, the feather board is very effective whecriticalse cuts and consistent pressure are critical.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"safety\"><strong>Safety<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Although power tools are famous for their effectiveness, they are also known to cause serious injuries. As such, the feather boards help to prevent your hands from moving too close to your saw blade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This accessoryallowsr easy maneuvering your stock in your cut&#8217;s direction without reverse movements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These advantages make a feather board a must-have tool for precision tasks. They are also essential when accuracy and safety are crucial.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"section-2-why-use-feather-boards\"><strong>Section 2: Why use feather boards?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Numerous accessories enhance the performance of power tools. Therefore, operators must decide which accessory is best for their power tool. If you want to improve your cutting results, the feather board is a must-have.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2.jpg\" alt=\"feather board and router table\" class=\"wp-image-4233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">feather board and router table<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the different reasons why you must use the feather board.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-easy-to-set-up-and-adjust\"><strong>1. Easy to set up and adjust<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Feather boards make work easier and faster. Feather board for table saws typically comes with a slot for width adjustment and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/the-finger-joint-woodwork.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">finger<\/a> pressure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They help cut tricky points while providing enough pressure to hold down the workpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-stability-and-tension-control\"><strong>2. Stability and Tension Control<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Power tools are disliked for their vibration, leading to parallax errors on a workpiece while cutting. However, the feather boards solve this problem for you as they have tension control functionality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This functionality helps maintain stability and even pressure to ensure a smooth cutting process.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-strength\"><strong>3. Strength<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Feather boards provide strength and durability. Nevertheless, most manufacturers use a hybrid composite plastic and metal material.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-size\"><strong>4. Size<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Featherboards come in several sizes that suit different applications. Therefore, no matter the size of the material you want to cut, you can find a suitable feather board.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-design-components\"><strong>5. Design Components<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Featherboards come in non-magnetic and magnetic variations. Both variations serve as an attachment of the feather board to the table saw. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the non-magnetic variations employ a standard miter slot positioning for attachment to the table.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"section-3-should-i-make-my-feather-boards-or-buy-a-readymade\"><strong>Section 3: Should I make my feather boards or buy a ready-made?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"31-how-to-choose-the-right-feather-board\"><strong>3.1 How to choose the right feather board?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>There are two significant ways that most operators acquire their feather board. They either buy from a manufacturing company or make theirs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, the choice of which way to go depends on several factors. These factors include time constraints and whether or not you like making jigs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flipside to DIY feather boards is that they are harsher to use. Also, these feather boards are mostly for professionals. Depending on the type of project you are undertaking, you may need to rethink your option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are hoping to make a basic clamp to the table saw, you can opt for a shop-made feather board. However, buy a ready-made board if you intend to make cuts requiring a lot of adjustment.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"section-4-how-to-make-a-feather-board\"><strong>Section 4: How to make a feather board?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"41-cut-the-stock-to-size\"><strong>4.1 Cut the Stock to Size<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Depending on the workpiece&#8217;s size, choose a feather board dimension to suit the purpose. An essential rule is cutting your feather board in 5\u00d712 inches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, you can <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" title=\"rip\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/rip-fence.html\">rip<\/a> your stock accordingly before cutting to length with your miter saw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In cutting your board length, you must follow an important rule. You must cut your stock according to your needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, consider that the distance from your clamping point to your saw blade is 10 inches. It means you must cut your feather board to be longer than 10 inches.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"42-miter-the-board\"><strong>4.2 Miter the Board<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Next is to crosscut your board at 30 degrees with your miter saw. It is best to cut on the part of the board against which the workpiece rests.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"43-mark-a-stop-line\"><strong>4.3 Mark a Stop Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>From the miter edge or face, mark a point 3 inches parallel to the 30-degree lacerations. This distinction will serve as your stop line when you start to cut the fingers of your feather board. Also, you can mark your edges with your bevel or a pencil.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"44-cut-the-fingers\"><strong>4.4 Cut the Fingers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Set the fence of the table saw 1\/4 inch from the cutting edge. Spot the long side of the board immovably against the fence and level on the table. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, run the board through the saw from the mitered edge until you arrive at the stop line. At that point, cautiously withdraw the board until it clears the sharp edge.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Turn the saw&#8217;s engine off. With the stock away from the sharp edge, move the fence 3\/8 inches away from the edge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, make another cut parallel to the first and again up to the stop line. However, note that the saw must be consistently removed while changing the fence to prevent accidents.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"section-5-how-to-use-a-feather-board\"><strong>Section 5: How to use a feather board?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Utilizing a feather board is much more secure than holding a workpiece against the fence by hand. This accessory helps to prevent kickbacks due to its design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Off-the-shelf models typically integrate with milter slots on the table. However, it should position in the feed direction and in front of the blade. This configuration is essential because it helps to prevent waste from interfering with the cuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lower the blade with the cutting tool off to position the feather board. Next, place the stock against the fence. After this, place the feather board against the stock. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should test the fit of the configuration before cutting. The blade should face down when tested. It involves moving the workpiece on the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The fit is perfect if the workpiece can move forward easily but is hard to move backward. Once positioned, you are ready to go!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/3.jpg\" alt=\"Featherboard as a guide\" class=\"wp-image-4234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.nccuttingtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/3-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Figure: Featherboard as a guide<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"section-6-the-best-feather-board\"><strong>Section 6: The best feather board<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-milescraft-featherboardnbsp\"><strong>1.
