Micro Jig "GRR-Ripper" 3D pushblock system
I was really excited when I first viewed this awesome push block. Having run my thumb through my table saw blade twice in my history of woodworking I immediately saw the advantages of the Microjig Gripper. Like everyone else that owns a table saw I have used simple push sticks and feather boards only to find that you just don’t have the control you need when moving a work piece through the blade. When I cut on the saw for a living I was comfortable to cut down to ¾” using my hands. The first time I caught my thumb I increased that to 1”, still feeling that I had more control of the work piece than with a push stick.
The second time I ran my thumb through the saw I lost confidence in cutting small pieces all together. When I saw the Microjig demonstrated a smile came to my face from ear to ear. I could see that with this push block I would not only have total control of the work piece but I would have a renewed confidence in using my saw.
When I got home I went to the task of assembling the Microjig. It went together easily but when I was finished I saw I had a few parts left over. I looked at the picture of the block and looked at the one in my hand and after a few seconds I decided to read the assembly instructions. Low and behold there was a use for all the parts! Excited I took it to the table saw, moved all the tools that were stacked on it and gave it a try. I quickly found out that the Microjig doesn’t work well on a rusty table with a dull blade.
I grabbed a bottle of Strike-Hold and a random orbit sander fitted with a maroon Scuff and Buff pad and removed all the rust. After that I waxed it and fitted it with a new blade. With the Microjig in hand I set it on the work piece and it slid through the saw effortlessly with total control. I want to thank Henry at Microjig for developing it and his son for demonstrating it to me. My table saw will no longer be filled with tools and crap and I will get back to building great things out of wood. John Michaels
