A routing tutorial for beginners Part Four

14488 Views 23 Replies 15 Participants Last post by  harrysin
Here is part four of my series of tutorials under the heading "routing for beginners" My intention is not so much to have all beginners make these items (although it would be a fast way to learn routing), but rather to show that routing using the table mounted router is not the start and finish of routing. Welcome to the wonderful world of routing.

Hi Harry

Once aging you blew me away, that's a real neat way to make the templates, NICE job and a great How-To-Do-It ........plus a zip file on top of that.. :) I can't wait for the other members to give it a shot and see how it works out for them..having the RAS is a real plus but I'm sure it can be done on the table saw as well..

Plus it's neat way to rack them up if you have a pool table :)

Great tutorial as usual Harry....Glad to see you havn't lost your touch.........AL
Here is the forgotten zip file!

Welcome back,

I see you were away so long you forgot how to attach a zip file...ROTFL.



ps. the skis made a successful trip back to Sydney, but my suitcase put on 6kgs while I was over there. (must be Maree's souvenirs)
Great Harry! I like that as well. I haven't any skies yet. Hopefully, someday.
I'm really a beginner at routing.
I can't imagine a beginner understanding what went through these 4 sessions.
I was lost in the first session,with the different sizes of cutters and bushings.
What do have have to learn to get to this stage?

Don, don't let Harry scare you off. :) He's been doing this for a long time. Fortunately, he is only too happy to share his knowledge with us mere students of the craft.
Thanks for your welcome, My name is Dan and live in Pa. enjoy your forums and tips, some times I had answers , but also I see some good answers from the rest , so I let it stand, keep up the good work

Hi Dan - Welcome to the forum:)
Glad you could join us. Whenever you feel you have a suggestion, feel free to jump on in and share it. There is seldom just one way of accomplishing a task and the more options are usually better for all. One of the strengths of forums like this. Once again, welcome aboard

Keep asking specific questions and welcome to the forum.
One of the great human values: The tradition of passing knowledge onwards with only a Thank you as a return...

Thank you Harry :)

Hi Harry

I've just read part 4 of your beginners guide. Can you give me a post number where you uploaded parts 1, 2 and 3. I've tried looking through your uploads but there are literally thousands of them.

Don't worry David, it takes me forever to locate some of them. Hopefully these zip files are what you want.

Unfortunately not Gavin, different names were used which is what is now causing ME problems! Don't forget, I'm an elderly Aussie and my memory consists of this pile of notes in front of me!

Hi Gav

it works if you use the "advanced search". Select "harrysin" as the poster and "beginner" as the keyword. I still get more than the four but the ones I wanted are all there.

Your memory is like mine, Harry - paper thin. But, I put mine in a 3-ring binder, so it resembles "long-term memory". ;)
Well Ralph, as simple as that is, I think it's worth taking out a patent on! I hadn't even considered the idea, I'd better start making a heap of bookshelves.
