bandsaw push stick
 

for the bandsaw i use a stick but sometimes i grab a larger piece like a 2x4
or even a recent bandsaw cut-off scrap

trimming round stock can be dicey sometimes
do you use a jig or clamping system

i take too many risks on the bandsaw

i need to make a jig with an indexer for cutting circles like for bowl
blanks

i was going to make one from plywood but i lose too much vertical
capacity so i may make one from sheet metal and wood

wood for the bandsaw groove and sheet metal for the indexer

drill holes spaced at 1/2 inch and just use a trimmed tico nail to
come up through the hole in the sheet metal

then drill a small hole to match the tico nail in the bowl blank
