Deluxe Push Block

Yeah, what Harry said Bob! How about while making your mini router table. Then again, my wife would probably tell me that she's got better things to do than spend time in the "Cave"

that's what they call my shop!

Hi Bob, would it be to much trouble to give the dimensions of your push block or at least the base. I want to make one of these. I will make a simpler version that is dedicated to 1/4 box joints. I have the 3/8 jig as well but I will make another later. Just quicker for me

but if you could give the basic dimensions I sure would appreciate it!

Hi Corey and Harry

Well it's almost done, just waiting for the router to show up Thur.
Then I just need to put the hole in the top for the router to drop in place,,,plug into the outlet and fire it up,so to speak

LOL..

It's wired for power,I was thinking painting it white but not sure about that yet, but it may come about waiting for the UPS truck to show up about 3:30 Thur...

It should take about 1 hour or so to mount the router and take it for a test run and by that time I should be making dinner or the BOSS will be on my ass ..

I was thinking about a paint job tonight but it's been raining and the paint may not dry just right...and I hate to tape stuff off for a paint job so it may be just plain MDF stock.

Got the fence done today and it's a new type that should work out great it's like yours Corey but with some add on items,3/4" thick x 4 1/4" wide x 22" long with a bit guard and a Vac. pickup (2 1/2" port) drilled right into the white poly. fence, it's setup to suck the chips right out the top of the fence and it can be use from both sides of the fence, one nice clean side and one side to hide the bit in .

No black port to bolt on or get in the way...

this time...

Can't wait to see it Bob.. especially that fence! Take a photo while your routing the top out will yah? I want to see how you do that. Your table will make mine look like crap...lol. Like your push block does to my block with a shaker peg!

BJ not to get off the path here but when you said that about cooking dinner it made me think of my Father-In-Law. I expect that you are a pretty damn good cook! My father in law was as well. He baked, did deserts, meats everything and when my mother in law got cancer 15 years ago and was taking Chemo he started doing all the cooking then and has been doing it all since then. All the holiday dinners etc. and forget the presents on Christmas morning.... Christmas breakfast was a site to behold!
Since he is gone now... the holidays won't be the same for more than one reason! He was well known to the high school football and soccer teams besides being their number one fan! He catered a weekly spaghetti feed for each team during each season.. complete with salad and garlic bread... and my wife and I served the players and their parents each week while grandpa was cooking more spaghetti!

Sorry, didn't mean to get off on that but your post reminded me of him... when you said the wife would be on your ass......

Hi Corey

Yep , I'm the cook and I do enjoy it , I make all kinds of food, the Boss makes Thanksgiving dinner but I do get to cut the bird and cut the cheesy

but I do get to clean up after also..

I make it all from soup to nuts you should see and taste my cinnamon rolls they are about 3 1/2'" in dia. and about 2 1/2" thick ,when I made them all the kids nail them and take them home,, I make about 40 or so and they are gone in 20 mins.

one will fill you up and they are good

I also make a apple pie that would make your mouth water , I use green apples,and pears,org.can of fruit cocktail and what every I have around, it's great stuff, just a bit of ice cream on top and your set...

to enjoy the best pie in the world..

That's just scarey... you sound like him when you talk about cooking! The pie sounds good... he messed for years on pie crusts. He makes a goodin!

What's with all you guys who cook, are you trying to make me feel inadequate? At least when people used to react with disbelief I was able to assure them that I could repair video recorders better than they or anyone they knew could! and I have a thick scrapbook of newspaper & magazine clippings to back it up!

**Bob N** · 05-31-2007, 05:55 AM

Bj,

Those rolls sound GREAT! Maybe we should we should request a new forum section for recipe swaps

I love to cook, but hate the clean up. Here is my favorite cooking "tool" and I have 3 of them, one of each size.

**bobj3** · 05-31-2007, 09:14 AM

Hi Bob

I have one and use it from time to time also , I think it's the 1st. "set it and forget it" cooker, like the one you see on TV but without any cords

I got the recipe for the rolls from a mate in Fort Collins,Co. at a truck stop on I-25 and truckers will drive 200 miles out of the way to get some,,,they had a 15 min.thing on TV about the truck stop and the rolls..

I make two kinds, one that light and one that's hvy.,,.the hvy. ones I like best

Hi Corey

"basic dimensions I sure would appreciate it!"
Will do that today

But do go the extra mile and make it fit ALL the box joint jigs you will be glad you did and it's not to much more work to do it...dedicated is nice but one jig to do it all ,well ...

The one I made will do up to 5/8" but I wish I made it bigger to take on the 1" slot and the 3/4" so now if I want to do 1" I need to made a new one and I'm lazzy and it will be a long time b/4 I make a new one..just for that....and because I'm lazzy I'm sure I will just use a old type peg push block
