  • Routers for Router Tables New-Breed Models Spare You the Expense of a Router Lift
    Compliments of Fine Woodworking TOOL TEST Routers for Router Tables New-breed models spare you the expense of a router lift BY ROLAND JOHNSON ABOVE-TABLE ADJUSTMENTS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE A table-mounted router can be very versatile.

That gives more precise control over a variety of work, us- ing bits that otherwise would be too big to use safely. A table allows the use of feather- boards, hold-downs, a miter gauge, and other aids that won’t work with a hand- held router. With a table-mounted router, you can create moldings on large or small stock, make raised panels using large bits, cut sliding dovetails, and much more. Until recently, the best way to marry router and table was with a router lift, an expensive device that holds the router and allows you to change bits and adjust cut- ting height from above the table.

  • Power Tool Guide 05J50.01
    Power Tool Guide 05J50.01 The Veritas® Power Tool Guide is a collapsible straightedge that can be clamped to any material under 1" thick. The 52" tool guide (05J50.03) can be clamped across sheet material up to 52". The 8' Power Tool Guide (05J50.01), or the 48" tool guide extension (05J50.04) added to the 52" tool guide, can be clamped across sheet material up to 100". The advantage this guide has over other 8' guides is that it may be dismantled quickly and easily for cutting smaller sheet material as well as for easier storage or transport. The guide includes a pair of 1" capacity clamps that can be positioned anywhere along its length. For clamping material thicker than plywood sheets, a pair of 2" capacity clamps (05J50.09) is available separately. An optional 12" traveller (05J50.02) used in conjunction with a user-made base plate ensures that your power tool will effortlessly follow the intended line with greater safety. The utility of the traveller is further enhanced with the optional position stop (05J50.10) that clamps onto either guide rail. Figure 1: Veritas® Power Tool Guide. Safety Rules These safety instructions are meant to complement those that came with your power tool. We suggest that you reread those, in addition to these listed here before you begin to use this product. To use this product safely, always follow both sets of safety and general instructions. 1. Read the manual. Learn the tool’s applications and limitations as well as the specific hazards related to the tool.

  • Router Tools Designed for Machining Mechanical Plastics Provide an Opportunity to Maximize Productivity. Way
    MAY 2005 / VOLUME 57 / NUMBER 5 BY VAN NISER, ONSRUD CUTTER LP The Router tools designed for machining mechanical plastics provide an opportunity to maximize productivity. Way tics include acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), Acetal, Delrin, Hydex, nylon, polycarbonate, polyurethane and polyethylene terephtalate (PET). Cutting Tool Geometry Router bits for cutting mechanical plastics have traditionally been run on CNC routers at high spindle speeds and feed rates. Extensive testing and years of field experience have shown that a tool with a high rake and low clearance performs exceptionally well. It ma- chines mechanical plastics more pro- ductively than tools with other geome- tries and imparts a finer surface finish (Figure 1).
