A great concise video that explains router types and how to use them
Thanks! I was just pondering many of these points yesterday while standing in the aisle at the store.
Thanks
Thank you. Very clear and to the point. Now I'm thinking that maybe I should get a router table for a big upcoming project.
Awesome video!
Thanks for the knowledge
Explanation about router bits
GREAT TIPS...
can you please show how to use a dovetail bit in the router?
awesome
Great video, what’s the rule of thumb on the direction when using it hand held? Left to right or right to left, I was told because the direction the bit is rotating, left to right is correct, what are your thoughts? thanks
If you watch the video, they show you left to right when working hand held. Right to left on table mounted routers.
@ Adrian Mack, Thanks for feeling a need to reply and assume I didn’t watch the video in a condescending tone, which I obviously did. I just wanted Craig to explain why left to right is optimal. I just wanted the reason you go from left to right from a professional woodworker not some one with 2 subscribers, but thanks for trying to chime in. Keep moving forward and one day you might get 3 subscribers, with all due respect.
@@lawdog516, I know at least for free hand this... router bits turn clockwise. When doing free hand, you want to go from left to right or in other words, against the grain. What he didn't mention, which I just learned, is to do the end grains (cross cut/short end) 1st then then against the grain lengthwise. The reason why is that it reduces/prevent tear out. When using a table, you flip the router upside down so when you go right to left on it, your still going against the grain. Hope that answers what you're looking for.
You covered the bare-bones basics.
You didn't mention top-bearing pattern bits nor the other size bits (1/8" and 3/4" & even larger!) typically for commercial stuff, such as the small, hand-held laminate trimmers and the large scale pattern moulding machines.
They're not as common though I have seen them available for home use by DIY'ers.
Some people may want to know this, as they may be trying to decide what direction they wish to go with their tool purchase.
Good video. Pro tip - do not buy the Wood magazine project plans...they are just clippings from their magazine articles and don't include all the steps or material list and are generally very sloppy. Their customer service is of no help.
Plz
