Router Bushings https://lddy.no/z7ev
My Favorite double Sided Tape https://lddy.no/g2ht
As a shop teacher, I teach my students, "You read left to right, you should router left to right" when the router is in front of the board with very few exceptions! I teach them to move fast and nibble across the grain and go slower routing with the grain, and other router techniques. Have never had an accident teaching 7th and 8th graders!
I like your watch lol is it a Hamilton?
I like your "right hand trick". Great tips.
What's with the hyphenated name? I want answers before I take you serious.
I wonder what he is getting in exchange for recommending a bit more expensive than the router :/
Nice fixes. Simple and safe. Screwed up my first brass bushing due to not having a centered face plate.
Awesome video.
If you have a power feed, climb cuts do produce a smoother surface, however.
Yeah i wont be gettin a router lol too much hassle
Jonathan- What product are you spraying on the wood at the 8 minute mark of this video? Is a temp bond for two pieces of wood?
That spray is what???
Nice to see recommendations according to personal experience rather than paid sponsors. We novices need help choosing our tools to avoid either buying too much or too little. Like most tools, routers are fun to use but a wrong choice can make their use either a pain or results not what we wanted. Your video is very informative and gave more info in it's short time than most give in days of videos. Also, even though you have a nice setup, it is not so overwhelming (big) that I turn it off out of frustration because I only have (most have less) a single garage size area. Most tubers don't realize their pole barn size shop is a turnoff, not a turn on. Thanks for keeping it real and informative and not a "look at what I got" video!.
For the edge guide…. I just screw a piece of scrap wood that has a straight edge to the router base.
?
What if my bit won’t go through the bottom plate

Great channel, but wish it used normal units, so I could understand everything 😀
Haven't watched all your videos (yet) but already I can tell that you are the best teacher for newbies like myself, great tips and amazing explanation skills, overall high quality, friendly, no-nonsense knowledge transfer, as well as top notch video production…THANKS
I'll do subscribe I hope I'll get more help from your Videos
It make a sense I give thanks for sharing you ideas
Never used one and have no idea what you were doing!
I'm finding the direction thing confusing … watching again
Talking through is good but actual video of the bits in operation is better
I am new to routers and want to purchase one. I am not going to be doing any kind of building furniture, I am just making wine racks that I want to put an edge on and wooden signs that hang on the wall that maybe have some cut out words in them. Do you have a recommendation for a good first time router? I was thinking a palm router since it's smaller but I don't know which router to purchase. I don't know if I should just get a bigger one that accepts half inch bits in case I ever want to grow in my routing experience.
If you ever want an apprentice that doesn’t need much training but is actually just another woodworker who wants to play in your shop, I’m your guy. ???
This video got you a like and subscribe 🙂 Just bought a router and you got me all excited to use it 🙂
Seems so obvious now, but I think that simple dado jig just saved a bunch of headache on a project I'm in the middle of
Network Routers ?!?!?!
Enjoyed your video. So I learned you will need to take more than one pass when doing a profile bit. Does the speed of the bit matter?
I really love my routers and I really thought I knew how they worked – this video has been a game changer for me! Thanks a million!!

Nice tip for remembering the direction of the spinning drill bit ??
Just about to buy my first router. Your video is my first. Great explanation. Gonna have to subscribe now. Thanks
Thank you a whole bunch for this fantastic video. You are a first rate teacher!
So glad I found this video thanks ?
Can you please explain how a “dead simple” fix is different from an alive one? Thanks.
Ps. Really appreciate your videos, keep up the great work!
You assume too much. Lost me with all the jargon.
What a fantastic video! Thank you so much
