WOODWORKING ROUTERS
How to Use a Router: the basics, tips, jigs and buying right
There are a number of essential tools for basic woodworking. Routers
are probably on the top of the list.
They are relatively inexpensive, and yet versatile to do a lot of very specialized jobs, as a standalone, or mounted in a router table.
How to use a router effectively and safely is probably the biggest issue.
It packs a lot of power and can turn cutters at upwards of 36,000 rpm's, so picking the right machine and cutter for the job, and knowing how to do it safely is important to the long standing relationship you should have with your fingers.
