A must have!
Format: Paperback
I was given a copy of this book decades ago by my Father when I was starting out as a professional carpenter. Later after a move I discovered it had gone missing, and I ordered a new copy. It is a must have for any pro or home shop user. The tools, jigs and techniques described will turn your table saw into a do everything tool. The table saw is the center of any woodworking shop, and this book clearly illustrates why with all the flexibility one can achieve with some simply learned techniques and home built jigs. Further, one learns how to solve problems beyond the Table saw, by learning how to make jigs.. all the lessons can be applied to other tools like routers, drills etc. Of all the "getting the most out of your new _____ " books I have read, this has been the most influential. ... show more

One of two excellent starter books for info on tablesaw use
Format: Paperback
I am just starting out in the world of being a hobbiest woodworker and I wanted books on the tablesaw to give information on proper setup, use, maintenance, and safety techniques (better to learn to keep your fingers right from the start). After reading the other (above) reviews of this book, I purchased it. It turns out to be a wonderful source of information for the beginner. I team this book with "Woodworking - The Right Technique" by Bob Moran as two volumes a beginner should have (and read thoroughly) before embarking on using your tablesaw. Everytime I re-read either of these volumes, I pick up something new that I didn't pay attention to the first time. This book (along with the the Moran book) are highly recommended. ... show more

Supply of a book "Table Saw Techniques" Revised edition by Roger W Cliffe purchased at Amazon.
Format: Paperback
On Nov 12 I ordered a new copy of "Table Saw Techniques" Revised edition by Roger W Cliffe. I am very pleased with the speedy and efficient service that my order attracted. On Nov 14 I was advised by e-mail that the order had been processed and later on the same day that the order had been shipped from PCS Books Ltd in the UK. I am pleased to advise that I received the book today Nov 23 in good condition. Only 11 days from the UK to Australia. I can not get this sort of service from local mail order sites. I will certainly use amazon.com in the future.Table Saw Techniques: (Revised Edition) ... show more

Book
Format: Paperback
I wish I had this book a lot of years ago. It would have saved me some money and a lot of grief. I am giving it 4 stars rather than 5 as I knew a lot of the content through trial and error. Lewis891

Excellent in depth book
Format: Paperback
As a hobbiest, it is sometimes difficult to find a serious book that is not a proffesional technical publication. Most are either too elementary for someone who has used table saws for years, or too technical for someone who is not a professional wood worker. This book bridges the gulf. It covers the basics well that serve as reminder for those who have experience yet is understandable and educational for those just starting out. As the sections get more advanced, the illustrations and photos are plentiful and show good detail. These are extremely helpful in understanding the processes described. In short this book is a keeper. Good reference material. ... show more

Not a "good" book
Format: Paperback
Sorry, but I disagree with all the "good" reviews here. I made the mistake of reading them, then ordering the book. It is not worth the money, nor the time it takes to look at it. The pictures all look like they are from a 1940's high school shop manual. Pictures lack detail and are blurry. Descriptions of accessories are lacking in detail and don't seem to note "how to make" any of them. My suggestion is to look elsewhere for "table saw techniques" rather than buy this book. Sorry I didn't do so. ... show more

It's a previously viewed book, exactly what was desired, at a fabulous price, and the surprise was it was shipped from the UK to the USA. No complaints whatever.

You'll Laugh, You'll Cry...
Format: Paperback
I read this book and two others (Burton's Table Saw Tips & Tricks, Tolpin's Table Saw Magic). Table Saw Techniques is hard to swallow. The photos are of absurdly poor quality...foggy, low-contrast black & whites. In some cases they are out of focus or have moire patterns (made from previously screened photo prints). The writing has an authoritative tone even while making points of dubious value (excerpts below). The 1950's vibe of this book will make you laugh or maybe cry. You will absolutely find some useful tips if you push your way through its 350 pages without killing yourself. Most people will be better off with Burton, Tolpin, or one of the other table saw books. Excerpts: "A chip-limiting blade is ideal for beginning woodworkers. They will have better control over the stock and not be intimidated by the blade. This makes it easier for the beginner to succeed at the table saw." "The height on most commercial roller stands is adjustable. This one locks at the desired height." ... show more
