To identify the angle on dovetail bits, mark the angle on the end of the shank with an engraver.

Take the time to clean the bits with a good bit cleaner and check the bits at the same time for any errors,cracks,chips,bearing,etc.

Don't use dull bits or burnt bits replace them with new ones.
A sharp tool is a safe tool.

If you are using a router table and a guide bushing to route a pattern look out for unsupported edge grain. In other words, outside curves are dangerous because the router can tear out the object being routed and can cause the project to be ruined.

What speed for what bit that is more than 1" dia.? No speed chart in your manual or on the router ? Easy...tip speed in the range of 104 to 107 mph will be pretty close to the correct speed.ie: 2" bit = 3.1416 x 2 x guessed RPM divided by 12 x 60 divided by 5280. If the answer is greater than 107 mph...lower the est.speed & recalculate.

Just read info about UMHW for fences and jigs.
Well, ok for fences but for jigs that don't get used for very long...kinda expensive!
I use 3/16 inch masonite, two pieces glued back to back.
That gives a thickness of 3/8 inch to cut you pattern on and it works great and it's cheap.
