One To Watch!

Either the server is down, or several e-mails, all pointing out the dangers, have succeeded in getting the article removed. I hope it's not just the server!

Ray.

I have to admit that I did send an email pointing out their dangerous techniques, wrong terminology, and the fact that the bench wouldn't survive a moderate sneeze. I'm sure others contacted them as well.

I notice all the other videos seem to work, so maybe they actually read and responded to the emails

Good job pointing this out, Ray. At best you helped prevent a newbie from getting injured. At worst, you saved someone buying lumber and spending time for a POS!

Hmm, don't have Real Player installed. Don't do Real software, I hated what they do to my computer and refuse to install it.
They install it, force it to run all the time by loading it, force the icons on your desk top, systray and everywhere else and grab all the sound file registries and point to their player. I don't even think it sounds that good, last time i tried it.

Try Real Alternative

Just plays the videos, none of the other crap.

If you are referring to the inital operation on the leg, there are a couple of options. For me, I would use a stacked dado and a subfence the ends before the leading edge of the blade whenever using a SMT or miter gauge. Another option would be a tenoning jig.
