Download or read book Festool Essentials TS 55 and TS 75 Portable Plunge Saws written by Schiffer Publishing Ltd and published by Schiffer Craft. This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Festool(R) TS 55 EQ & TS 75 EQ have transformed the circular saw into a precision cutting system. When used with the FS/2 Guide Rail System, precision cutting can be accomplished at the work site as well as in the workshop. Together they produce absolutely straight and splinter-free cuts everytime. Whether cutting perpendicularly or at a bevel, the cut line is the same. As a plunge-cut saw, an accurate cut can be made anywhere in the material, and, because the saw blade and riving knife retract into the housing, safety is greatly increased. This user's guide gives a complete, easy-to-understand explanation of the Festool sawing system with step-by-step instructions for its use and applications. The saws are explained in detail, covering settings and adjustments, and the various blades that are available. While the saw works well in the freehand mode, it becomes a precision tool when used with the Festool FS/2 Guide Rail, a well-engineered and versatile system with many applications. The guide rail system, the Festool Multifunction Table and the CT Dust Extraction System are also covered here in detail.

The projects in Turning Toys can serve as a base for almost limitless variation, so you can put your own stamp on each object you create. Repetition is the key to mastering any craft, so these projects are in part skill-builders that you can repeat and thereby hone your turning techniques. You can get plenty of practice when small kids can't have too many peg dolls, balls, or things on wheels. You'll see ways of salvaging a situation when things go wrong, as they inevitably do when you have a catch or the wood splits. Disasters become design opportunities. The photos and drawings show you what to do, step-by-step; you'll see exactly how the tools are used, how the cutting edge should relate to the surface you're cutting, and how to stand to support and hold the tools so that working at your lathe is a comfortable and pleasurable activity. Few things can be more satisfying than making stuff for people you know, let alone love, especially when you can watch them using and enjoying the products of your labors. This book will bring you many happy and fruitful hours at the lathe creating heirlooms for future generations.
