Plexiglass subbase

Hi Terry.....
Could you tell me ...what size Plexiglas, did you use for the router’s subbase.....and did you use the original screws that came with that trim router. I have the same router and man those screws are really small. any advise on this would be great.....thanks

Sorry Rout4you, I missed your post,, I used a piece of Plexiglass 1/4 inch thick about 10 or 12 inches square. You remove the base plate that is on your router, and use that as a template to drill the holes in your new large base plate. Remember, you are NOT putting the original small base plate back on,, but replacing it with the new big plate,so you are not really much thicker then before. You have to counter bore the plate so the screw heads do not stick up above the surface of the new plate,, so the old screws, even though they are not very big, should work fine.

Free hand routing out pictures

I just started routing out pictures on wood freehand and I can't seem to find anyone that does that, I find scrollsaw patterns and draw them on wood and rout out all the places that would normally be cut out with a scroll saw, I rout them out about 1/4" deep, then I stain all the cut area and sand off the excess stain. Does anyone else do this out there?

Thanks
Vern
 
Welcome to the forum, Vern.

I had not thought of that way.
 
Welcome to the forum, Vern !

This sounds similar to some techniques I have seen in the signs making section of this forum already. Non the less, it's good idea, and probably faster than scrollsawing
