Shop Tips
Workshop Tip: Wood coat hangers make great push sticks
Break it apart, cut notches, and go.
To make long, comfortable push sticks in minutes, break apart a wood coat hanger and cut notches in the parts. The curved end fits the hand beautifully. This type of push stick works well on several machines, but the shark-fin type with a long lower edge is better for the tablesaw.
