CUTTING + INSTALLING KEYS

Regardless of the method you use for cutting a key slot, the process

for milling and installing the key itself is the same.

TOOLS

Bandsaw

Handplane or drum sander

Clamps

Flush trim saw

Sanding block or

handplane

1. Resaw a piece of stock to just

proud of the desired thickness.

The bandsaw can leave a rough

cut, so you’ll want an opportunity

to smooth the surface while

bringing it down to the perfect

thickness.

2. Smooth the thin strip at the

workbench with a handplane.

Keep working until the piece fits

into the key slot perfectly.

3. A drum sander is a great

power tool alternative to smooth

and thickness the key stock.
