I have some 5” diameter maple discs that are perfect for waste blocks but they are too thick (nearly 1”). I want to cut them in half. I have all the usual saws including a bandsaw with a 13” throat. But what do I use to safely hold the disc against the fence so it doesn’t go flying? I’m sure there’s a jig I can build but I’m not sure what it would look like. Is there a simple solution here? Thanks!
