'Readers Tools' in the comments folks!!
Measure twice, cut once...
Another interesting session - thanks for taking the time to set these up and run them Mark (& Carol).
One question though ...
Am I using the wrong routers? Â Every time I pick one up for a job it's got the wrong cutter in it - top bearing rather than bottom, or wrong diameter cutter, or wrong length cutter, or it's not the roundover, or (etc). Â Whereas yours always seem to have the right cutters in them.
Â
I mentioned it on the chat on the session, but a really big improvement in router use for me came in the last couple of weeks, after I bought some A4 sheets of clear acrylic sheet, and mounted the routers on those as bases. Â So much easier to use, steadier to balance on the jig or body, easier to cut across wider areas ... wish I'd done that sooner!
