More than 10 years after its original publication, this clear and accessible guide continues to serve woodworkers of all skill levels with a comprehensive offering to the router and its many uses. Packed with the techniques and tricks needed to unleash the router's incredible potential, this manual includes the best ways to cut decorative edgings and moldings, surface wood and joint edges for glue-ups, shape furniture parts, and cut curves, circles, and ovals. With chapters on how to make cope-and-stick frames; raise panels; and cut strong, practical joints of all kinds—including dadoes, rabbets, laps and half-laps, dovetails and sliding dovetails, and mortise-and-tenon—this updated full-color offering complements each step-by-step, instruction-based exercise with hundreds of large, clear photos and drawings that teach crafters about using a router safely and productively.
