lon,
Let me see if I understand your question. Are you asking how do you guide the stock you are holding into a spinning bearing guided router bit? The answer is to use a starting pin. The starting pin (or Fulcrum pin) gives you something to hold the wood against as you pivot the stock into the cutter and on to the bearing. This helps prevent the stock from getting pulled out of your hands as the bit begins to cut, or worse yet, pull you hands toward the bit.
Once the stock is riding on the bearing you can work away from the starting pin.
Hope this helps,
Doug
