Glossary of Terms

ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE MATERIALS
Materials that permit the flow of electrical current.
Metals such as steel, aluminum, and copper are
examples of electrically conductive materials.
FEATHERBOARD
A device which can help guide work pieces dur-
ing rip type operation by keeping work piece in
contact with the rip fence. It also helps prevent
kickback.
FREEHAND
Performing a cut without a fence, miter gauge, fix-
ture, hold down or other proper device to keep the
work piece from twisting during the cut and can
be a safety hazard.
GUM
A sticky, sap-based residue from wood products.
After it has hardened, it is referred to as "RESIN" .
HEEL
Misalignment of the blade which causes the trail-
ing or out feed side of the blade to contact the
cut surface of the work piece. Heel can cause
kickback, binding, excessive force, burning of the
work piece or splintering. In general, heel creates
a poor quality cut and can be a safety hazard.

was removed by the blade.
KICKBACK
