Hi Harry

Nice job BUT I'm disappointed you didn't come up with a way to make them with the ski setup,,,,,I was almost sure you would come back with a way to make the feet but I was looking forward to see how you or Tom would do it..the safe way like with the bits below...

The pictures you posted show how you did it but that's a bit scarey for most router table users.....and use the term "finger"

I would suggest using a push block like the one(s) in the snapshot below, the long on will hold (saw handle type) the item down and push it along with one push block ,plus with the knob up front,this will keep both hands out of the way of the bit...


But the feet sure do help the looks of that great box Harry...
