I'm milling half blinds on ¾” Baltic birch.
I'm wondering how I would prevent chip out on the tails...
The side stop only protrudes about 1/8 inch from the jig body, and if I want to place a backer block behind the tail board to help prevent chip out on the veneer, only the backer board and not the tail board will be aligned to the side stop. So then if I set it up that way the tail board does not have that side stop support. Is that a problem - would it cause the tail board to spin a bit out of alignment?
How do you experienced Leigh jig guys use a backer board to prevent chip out in this situation?
