Special thanks to our show sponsor Festool.
On today’s show, we’re talking about drifting table saw cuts, proper rasp use, old clogging chip breakers, prepping a bandsaw for a move, proper dust mask usage, and is sanding necessary for hand tool users?
What’s on the Bench
Marc had a nice little BBQ release party for his new book. Matt is running behind on his bed project but a sub-assembly helped cheer him up. Shannon didn’t get much woodworking done this week because his wife fell down the steps.

Here’s a bit of trivial kickback that Matt might find useful at home:
In the movie “Sixteen Candles” the charater of Jake Ryan was played by Michael Schoeffling, who as an adult is reported to be a cutom furniture maker in PA. You might want to research this a little more for more detail
I almost had an accident when you guys made your “DNA” comments. You guys are too funny.
