- I just remembered some advice I received on Jointers that I have never
- seen repeated on the net. This comes from a guy who has a small
- commercial shop.
-
- He said that the gap between the infeed and outfeed table (where the
- blades are) should be no more than x inches wide (I think he said two
- inches, but I can't remember for sure). He said the smaller the gap is,
- the less likely you are to have accidents. He was very serious.
-
- Anyone care to comment on this?
