Hi Robbie,
well, that's just way too simple! What's wrong with a screaming router balanced on the edge of almost nothing [headinwall] ? Once again, you're way too practical. This definitely gets added to my library.
Thanks,
Craig S.

That's very cool.

That would work really well for making bridges as well. Less chance or any tearout or blowout too.

Right you are Rod! It works great for cutting out bridges as well.

Robbie - would bandsawing close to the template help, or is the bit better off having a real channel to track in?

It is better to have a channel.

Great tip Robbie.

I have a question.
What is the purpose of grinding the drill bit edge on the chuck end?

Thanks,
Ron M.

Because the shaft is solid on that end.

You are welcome Danny. I am glad you are finding them useful. You have no idea how much time and energy goes into each one.

Fine presentation, Robbie!
Does shaft roation and feed direction come into play as it does with router bits?

Not really. You will notice that there is one part in the video that I go about an inch or so to the right and then reverse and go back to the left. With this said, you may notice that it travels better one way or the other. Find the direction that works for you.

Nice Job Robbie.

I liked the shot where you had three hands.

This is a great method.

In nine years, I thought I'd seen it all, not so.

Thanks to you and LMI for sharing your knowledge.

[clap]
