I am loving your tips and more especially the workshop videos, to which I subscribe. Any way that I can save all this stuff (I know u have copyright), but downloading a typical 28 min workshop lesson took me nearly 2 hrs with our limited band width here.

The sticks are not the pattern, could you imagine having to place the sticks on each piece you wanted to cut out....each one would be different and that is not the way you want to do it.

Are you using the "sticks" to guide a bearing mounted router bit to cut an opening that follows the stick outline? I am lost!

An example is the router tip about the hardware you can replace the pattern to drill the holes with the rectangle pattern used to cut inset drawer pulls. This pattern making technique makes both portable and table mounted patterns. Next is the process of making the jig or fixture to hold the pattern. Tom: The process of making the pattern is part one to cutting the offset lip for the base plate. Here is the short version to making the offset cut for the base plate. Using the 1/2" router bit and a 5/8" guide set the depth of cut to 3/8" cut the outside cut for the base plate then change the router guide to the 1" guide this will move your router bit in by 3/8". Set the depth of cut to the thickness of the table top and make the cut through the table...you get the offset cut for your base plate.

Do you use this type of pattern with a table mounted router or are you just using a table mounted router to make the pattern? I am a little confused.
