Pad sawing is another way to quickly and accurately produce multiple pieces that have the same shape. The technique consists of holding together a pad of separate pieces, either by driving nails in waste areas or by using enough double-sided tape to do the job. The pattern of the part you need is drawn on the op piece of stock (Figure 14-33). The pad is then cut as if it were a solid block of wood (Figure 14-34). After cutting, the parts separate into individual pieces, all of them exactly alike.
