An Infeed Table Should be Your Friend

by Andrew Davis

In this month's article, Andrew wants you to know that you will never walk alone as you stand by your table saw because you've got a friend.  So, with apologies to composers Rodgers and Hammerstein, Ben E. King, and Carole King, respectively, I had to get that off my chest.  That friend is an infeed table.

As you know, outfeed tables for a table saw are much more prevalent than infeed tables.  But think of a long board in excess of 6' or a plywood sheet. An outfeed table is required to catch the ripped board.  But the same length stock has to start somewhere in front of the blade.  Hence the need for an infeed table. If that isn't reason enough, read An Infeed Table Should be Your Friend.  Andrews has more to sing about.
