Hi Harry

I also use the pins, but they are the number 23g,,they are about the same size as your desk stapler or to say the staple that they put out, I don't use the same size you do,,they are so small you can cut the off with the router bit if you have a error with one of them and is real hard to see the hole when I pull them out,,I put them in from the bottom or the top it just comes down how I'm using the template...

Pop a staple out your desk stapler and look how small they are...but they will hold any template in place...

In spite of all this I personally use pins believing that there is no chance of movement between the pieces, bearing in mind that here in Western Australia the temperatures reach into the 40+*C
At long last I've learnt the one advantage of living in the UK. I can reliably use hot melt!

Brian, don't let the thought of pins put you off the wonderful lifestyle with weather to match here in Western Australia, I realise that it's no longer possible to migrate here for ten pounds but air fares are pretty low at the moment!

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.
