Success with Routing by Stuart Lawson

by Stuart Lawson

With a router in hand, you can accomplish almost any woodworking task! In addition to basic trimming and edging work, routers can be used to smooth surfaces, cut grooves, and even make joints. Woodworkers of all skill levels will appreciate the concise instructions and detailed techniques, as well as the more than 150 color photographs and diagrams. There's professional advice for choosing and buying equipment and accessories, using cutters, controlling dust, and lots more. Using jigs is one of the keys to unlocking the router's potential, and their applications are discussed in great depth, including housing jigs, trammel jigs, and finger-joint jigs. Other featured topics are using a template and guidebrush, mortise and tenon joinery, and doing table routing.
