Rip, cross, dado & "sink".
Table saw cuts include rip cuts, crosscuts, miter box cuts and bevel cuts.
- A rip cut is a cut made parallel to the wood grain.
- A crosscut is generally at a fixed 90 degree angle.
- A miter cut involves a table saw with a miter gauge. A table saw with a miter gauge has one or two slots or grooves running from the front to the back of the table. These slots or grooves are used to position and guide the miter gauge or crosscut fence to set the miter cut at a precise angle. With this cut, the material being cut is angled versus the blade.
- Bevels are cut by changing the angle of the blade with respect to the surface of the wood on the table.
