The specific project in hand is an oak Plate Display Shelf a relative purchased at a craft booth in a Mall somewhere. Got it home and realized it only had picture hangers on the back... not very secure for displaying her plates. Asked me if I could put Key holes in it.. Since it's back edges are scrolled top and bottom, the only square I have to work with would be the shelf board mounted to the front, so likely would have to reference from there, with a spaced template to the back side for the Keyhole guide.
I'm thinking this problem will not be unique, because I've seen this before. If the next shelf is of different size/shape, an adjustable jig would be a better tool than a single set-up jig. My smallest router is a PC690. From that I go to a Bosch 1618 - 2 hp. |
