Shop Tips It's not uncommon to face a situation whereby a shelf must slide into a dado groove cut into an assembled carcase. Normally, glue is applied to the full dado length and its mating shelf edge. However, the glue tends to swell the wood, making it difficult to slide in place. Also, the tight fit causes most of the glue to be squeezed out, reducing A hardware store variety sawhorse bracket, along with a table leg brace the strength of the joint. Next time, minimize this problem by applying glue to the back half of the shelf and the front half of the dado as shown. A hardware store variety sawhorse bracket, along with a table leg brace
on each end, results in a sturdy saw-horse that folds flat for easy storage. Robert W, Waggoner, Anderson, Ind. Many Early American style projects are made using pine solid stock. However, if the design specifies a Vi in. plywood back or door panel, you'll probably be disappointed with the look of standard fir plywood. Knotty pine plywood looks best, but most lumberyards don't stock it. Next time you're in need, check the lumberyard or building supply center that sells pine kitchen cabinets. They usually sell small sheets of knotty pine plywood to be used on pine base cabinets that don't butt against a wall. On a radial-arm saw, if sawdust keeps the workpiece from butting against the fence, a cross-cut will no longer be exactly 90 degrees. Keeping the fence clean means brushing the sawdust away after every cut, a procedure that many woodworkers find bothersome. My solution was to create
a "dust pocket." It's made by cutting a strip of Vt in, by V* in. stock and locating it against the fence as shown. Now I only need to use the brush when the "pocket" is nearly full. Bill Jenkins, Richmond, Va. A short length of adhesive-backed magnetic strip, makes it easy to make clamp pads. Cut the strip to length, then secure it to a piece of Vi in. plywood. The magnet will hold the pad in place while the clamp is properly positioned. David W.
