| Details for Push Block Plans
 Free Push Block plans - Nearly all of us have a good supply of push-sticks for the tablesaw, bandsaw or router table. However we may not have or use push-blocks to their full extent. A push-block is simply a square or rectangular block of wood, with a handle, that is used on top of the wood - as opposed to a push-stick which is used primarily to push a piece of wood from the rear. In many applications, the push-block is more versatile than the push-stick. A push-block allows the woodworker to apply substantial downward pressure while also applying forward pressure. This is especially helpful on the jointer, where a traditional push-stick provides little value. A push-block is also useful on the router table when cutting edge profiles.
