The students will learn how to correctly use the crosscut sled and the miter sled. Some of the cutting techniques the students will learn are shoulder cuts, tendons, cross-cutting, creating dato cuts, and angle cuts; how to change and properly set the blade gap; and what to do if the break is tripped. Students will get checked out on the use of these tools at the end of the course, demonstrating that they are prepared to use these tools unsupervised as members at Artisan's Asylum or in their own shops.
