Intro: Push Sticks

One of the perks of owning a CNC router is seeing something in a store and knowing you can build it, not buy it. My old push sticks had seen better days so I designed a set in Illustrator and cut them out on my custom Shapeoko 2. Here is a link to the files if you want to build your own. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2qjA-uPFQ-IMThLe... I modified the second one so I could engrave it with my logo.

Nice - this is my push stick, that I made during my certification on large power tools - I used a table saw, thicknesser/planer, band saw, scroll saw, disc sander and two kinds of drill to make it. I call it my "apprentice piece".

Nice lookin stick Kiteman, don't take any offence but that's the type of stick that leads your hand into the blade if you slip. DP's stick is the kind that's designed to prevent that.

Nice job! I'm definitely going to make one just in case I ever get me a table saw.
