One of my observations is just because you can do something a certain way, doesn't mean you should. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me to be a better way than lifting up your jointer to run across the edge of a piece, especially when yo have a small router available. It was a slick idea. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark J Posted January 13 Report Share Posted January 13 It certainly is an interesting idea. Sorta like a mini router sled. Might not work on every board, but I think it has some merit. That bit looks similar to the one I use in the router table to flatten turning blocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted January 13 Author Report Share Posted January 13 I can see it as an advantage for flattening end grain, maybe. Otherwise, an electric hand plane is probably more effective. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember you getting creative with that concept yourself 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom King Posted January 13 Report Share Posted January 13 No thanks. With an electric plane you get controllable variable depth with the adjustable front sole, and the rear part of the base stays flush with the blades like a jointer. I keep a 3-1/4" for rough work, a 3-1/4" for finish work, and a 6-3/4" for beams. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
