Thank you Mike(and hamlin)...
That sounds fairly achievable. Now,,I'm totally going to trust you regarding the ease/accuracy of the OakPark jig. I suppose in a worst case its still a LOT cheaper than a template/jig combo.
OK, now that that is out of the way...do you suppose I could solicit just a bit more advice regarding the exact type of bit that I will need?
I am looking to do '1/4" slots/pins', and the actual thickness will be 3/4" hard wood( probably African Mahogany).
And lastly, could you maybe point me in the right direction regarding a router?
I will have only about $100 for both router and bit. I didnt know whether to look for a plunge feature or not(Im not totally sure what the 'plunge' ability is for other than making it easier on the router by doing multiple passes)...or what 'brand' in that low of a price range...also, I wont need to buy a bushing for the router when using the OakPark jig, will I?
I know my options are limited in that price range...the Craftsmans' seem to have mixed reviews at their website...and I saw a couple 'Skil' models, a 'Black and Decker' and even something called a 'Firestorm' at the Lowes website...any ideas?
Thanks again Mike for the details about the table...very useful info.
I dont sense much snobbery at this forum...and that's fresh air to me. |
