I just got a router outfit for Father's day. Hitachi router with plunge gizmo, a bunch of bits-some with a bearing attached-- and a router table. I've just used it once to trim 1/8 inch off two sides of the attic door. Worked nicely. Forgot to mention--also some bushings of various sizes. I'm not sure what these are for. Other hobbies are astronomy and target shooting. | ||

Phil., take a look at this pdf by Australia's master of the router. http://www.routerforums.com/18422-post1.html
__________________ Harry The best advice that I can give a newcomer to routing is, learn to use the router mounted, this can be as simple as a board held in a vice, with the router firmly attached and a simple fence held with clamps, and when he/she feels competant and confident in it's use and is familiar with all aspects of safety, THEN, and only then proceed to learn how to use the router hand held. This is MY opinion, and may or may not coincide with that of the forum management, but is based on a lifetime of woodworking. http://members.dodo.com.au/~sharry02/ | ||
