Not sure if this video is still monitored but I do have a question. For short words the rails are too long to be clamped on a smaller piece of wood. Do I need to run an extra board to make up the difference? Thanks
Has anyone worked out how to do a dollar sign using this kit? I'm thinking use a large S, then change to the smaller bit and bushing, and carefully position a smaller i over the S, see if one line is enough, or whether two can fit side by side
The purpose of the bushing is to keep off the sides of the template and follow the edges without having to see. You just have to trust and do a little practice before making a real piece so you get the hang of it.

This video is much better than the first created my Milescraft. Great product and easy to use especially after watching this video.
Received mine today. An amazing kit.
I had watched a video on sign making and he sealed the wood before routing the sign. Is that a good idea

We recommend securing support pieces of the same thickness on either side of the work piece. Making sure that the work piece itself is still secured.

Do a good job!

@@Sparky9450 it's almost impossible to see what you are doing. Some of the spacings don't look right either,
I spray all my sign blanks blue with a light coat from a rattle can, I can see my routing and I can sand away that blue coat immediately
What is recommended depth for 3/4 inch wood thickness? Is their a chart
There is not a recommended depth, as this is up to the user and their preference.
Can you tell me if this with fit a Katsu Router Trimmer on it's own or with the plunger base?
You need the sign kit base for using this kit. Freehand wouldn't be too controllable.
