I am going to make some Trivets for christmas gifts. As I am new to the router and only understand basic principles, I am looking for a couple of tips.
1. I want to round the edges but the material will be too thin for the bearing to have anything to ride on. I have come up with putting a guide board below it and running along it. Is this the easiest (sp?) way?
2. When I cut the parrallel grooves should I just clamp a straight edge and move for each line?
Also, anybody have unusual designs for trivets. I did a search and came up with very little info.
