Hi, In the process of purchasing a Rockler router table with lift, and my first project will be to build some cabinet door frames (euro style with a 1/4" plywood panel).

I intend to biscuit join the rails and stiles, and would like to use the router table to cut blind dados in the rails and stiles to accept the 1/4" plywood panel.

All advice is very much appreciated (bit type, how to cut blind dados, good jigs or set up options, etc...)

Thanks very much!

Thanks for the information guys!

R&S tongue and groove bits (vs. biscuit joints) it is! :sold:

Forgot to ask.

Will a PC 690 series (1 3/4 hp I believe) router be able to move a r/s toungue and groove bit through 3/4 inch birch adequately without having to "sneak up on" the cut?

I'd really like to set the table up one time per cut type and run all the rails/stiles consecutively, respectively.

That being said, bigger picture question: Is this an adequate power router for most cuts, or should I really be considering a larger motor altogether?

Thanks again,

HL

Thanks again for the advice - looks like I found a goldmine of knowledge here!

BJ, I'll read your post about 15 times and try to absorb it all.
