Build a Picture Frame With Your Table Saw

[Travis]

Here's a really clever article from Rockler.  I've seen these techniques before, but never put together in a project like this.  Really cool.

Travis great idea I'll have to buy one of them dado blades for my saw not cheap though. I've heard of people doubling up on a single blades to get the thickness don't know if it works.

Hi Roly, be careful if you're going to buy dado heads. Make sure your table saw has an extended spindle. Also I think the maximum width you'll get is 15.5 mm. Personally I wouldn't touch them, seen too many close calls, safer with a router. That is only my humble opinion of course, which is usually ignored.   . The fore mentioned applies to the UK only. Weird rules ??????.

Take care all.

Thanks Roy.

                      I just don't like the idea of the pain of keep changing the blade back to single all the time I think I would need another saw set up with a dado blade I do have an extended blade spindle in mine and I always use the single blade for dados at the moment or my router table but good advice.

That's a nice looking frame. I'll give that a go soon. Unfortunatly I have nothing to frame LOL. I'm pretty sure I have some 8/4 cherry in the garage. Thanks for sharing.
