I have a beginners hand-held routers course coming out soon. If you want to be notified when it launches check out this link –> https://bit.ly/2I8vT9k
Raise? Lower? How. I guess I need a clueless beginner version!
I feel like I could 3D print a cage for my dremmel and get roughly the same effect
But I can understand the use of a specialty tool 🤔
Hi from The Land Down Under, Australia .what is the mat that you have the piece of work on when you have no clamps
Hey Thanks. This was very helpful. 👍
Pertaining to the part where you said something to the affect of: "if you're going to be taking a lot of material off, you'll want to do that in multiple passes " I wish you would had exained how one does that. The depth up and down I know is adjustable, but an adjustment in this manner I'm unsure of what exactly you mean.
I just picked up my first router today. A total newbie . I decided on the dewalt 2 1/4 hp kit that came with plunge base over the compact version pretty much because the rockler oval and circle jig is only available in Canadian stores in the larger size . It’s a bit overkill because I’ll only cut up to 24” but the small jig is from the US and only works in the compact router.
I’m a bit nervous to start out using it because it’s a bit heavy. My plan is to cut 1/4 or 1/8 inc plywood circles and ovals and corresponding 1/2 inch Mdf supports for the plywood . I also want to get special carving bits to do some creative carving.
There is a guy on YouTube who sells bases with small handles closer to the base which I hope will make it easier to use.
I have small hands and hope the weight of this router won’t be a challenge . The last time I used a router was eons ago in grade 7 to make a clock. I remember I liked using it but don’t remember what sort of router it was .
What advice to you have considering I have small hands and feel a bit nervous about the weight and speed of it. I have yet to use it. Won’t be doing round overs but may use that cutter that cuts against templates for the Mdf wood. Looking for your best advice .
I just got my new Bosch Palm router, I'm exicited as hell, this video was very helpful,, but my finish is not as perfect as i extpected it to be,, I guess I need to practice more.. Thank you bro!!
First time ever learning what a router was! Thank you for making great content!
I am newbie, first time using router this week. May I ask what is best way to cut 10 mm depth of pattern hole, should I cut it by 1 pass, or 2 or 3 passes to cut that 10 mm depth? (provided that I have the right cutting length router bit)
Quick to the point
Thank you for the informative and concise video. How firm should we be holding the router? I find myself often death gripping my router in fear I would lose control of it.
