Another function of the jig is to steady the piece of wood being cut to prevent excess cutting or inaccurate cuts. The size, shape, and function of a woodworking jig will vary significantly according to how it is being used and with what tool it is being used.

Assume a homogeneous and isotropic medium. It is pretty simple. Homogeneous means there is the same stuff everywhere, like hydrogen gas or a block of copper. Isotropic means it has the same properties in all directions. Glass would be isotropic on a macro scale, a crystal would not. â C. Towne Springer Dec 13 '14 at 0:41.
