Get More From Your Jointer

A jointer is fundamental to accurate timber preparation, but good results depend on more than simply passing timber across the cutter block. How you assess the board, read the grain and control the timber as it passes over the machine all affect the accuracy and quality of the finished surface.

In this course, Peter Sefton demonstrates the practical techniques he uses to prepare timber safely and accurately, from large, twisted boards through to thin and delicate work. You'll learn how to establish a flat face side and square edge, giving you accurately prepared timber ready for the next stage of machining.

Practical Techniques for Safe, Accurate Jointing

Peter explains how hand pressure and feed speed affect the cut and how to work with grain direction, including more difficult interlocking grain, to achieve cleaner results.

You'll learn practical methods for removing twist and cup, planing timber to width and working safely with large, short and thin material using appropriate push blocks and techniques. Peter also explains how cutter wear can affect the finished surface, helping you recognise when the machine rather than your technique may be influencing the result.
