So I'm watching New Yankee the other day, and Norm goes into his usual explanation for why he's using a "sacrificial fence" while doing rabbets on the tablesaw using a dado stack.
My wife happens to be watching with me and says,
"I always feel sorry for the sacrificial fence. It wants so badly just to be part of a piece of furniture........"
:D

You did explain things to her after you were done chuckling, didn't you?

Even worse for the test cuts. Soooo close, yet so far away. ;)

Jason, may I suggest that you make her a piece of furniture using your sacrificial fences. That should make her feel a lot better.

At least she must know something about woodworking.
I used the words "sacrificial fence" and "rabbet" in the same sentence a few months ago, and my wife started looking at me like I was performing some kind of pagan ritual and asked "what are you doing to rabbits?!?!?" :eek:
I gave her the fastest little woodworking explanation anyone ever gave...

I am sure that didn't get anywhere near the look I got when I told my wife I would really like to get a piece of crotch mahogany.
