Instructions
Prepare your work surface
Place your spoilboard on top of your work surface.
We recommend using MDF. This is used so you can cut through your material without cutting up your work table. You can re-use this for future projects.
Place double-sided woodworking tape on top of your spoilboard in the area that you will be cutting. Then place your 1/2 inch plywood for cutting on top of the spoilboard. This helps hold down the parts that you are cutting so there is no chance of them moving while making cuts.
Clamp the plywood and spoilboard securely to the worksurface. Always clamp materials to a work surface before cutting so that your materials will not move while you are cutting.
