This is super valuable. I especially love the detail of your content. The tip about shifting pressure on the router guide at the end of the dado is pure gold. Thank you so much. It will save me much frustration.

Nice job brother 👏👏👏👏👏

Thanks for the all details type and trick. You have nice expensive equipment make works better.

You can do that no problem with a cheaper router, it just won't have as good dust collection and the adjustment will be a little bit annoying. Any palm router with an edge guide will do it. Or of course any table saw with a flat blade (most rip blades are flat)

Thanks for the video, good tips.
Question: since so much material has actual dimensions that are metric, would you recommend picking up a set of metric setup blocks?

[@AnthonyScolaro1]

Absolutely, metric setup blocks are great. They can definitely help with grooves and dados. I’ve actually even switched my tape measure to a metric/standard (since I converted mostly to metric), so I can reference the imperial side against the metric to get a grasp of what I’m used to, such as feet and inches then covert it quickly to millimeters or centimeters. It’s getting much easier as it’s been two years now that I’ve switched.

@@AnthonyScolaro1 TY!
I live in Texas and I think that using metric here is an offense that can lead to jail time :). Still an intriguing notion.

[@lanceyohe6026]

Long live the Queen and imperial measurements, right?! Or, just pick the best tool for the job at hand. If you like adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions, then you do you. For me, I made the switch a long time ago - in uniform during my 21 years of active duty - because metric is a more efficient system. However, when I’m framing a shed, deck or whatever, I use imperial.
