As always sometimes we need to trim a bit of material off the end of our project pieces. This tip shows you how to do it with the router. The home made fence gives extra support while cutting the pieces. Enjoy today’s router tip.
This is just one more router tip from the Router Workshop video series. To join in on the fun just click the photo below, fill out the subscription form and your set to get one new episode of the Router Workshop once a week.

On my computer, this video starts AFTER Bob begins talking and cuts off before he’s finished. Irritating. I think I get the idea of the tip but its badly edited. Not the only time either.
Clark,
Thanks for trying the FireFox browser, which fixed the video problem. It seams folks that the AOL Browser has trouble with our flash video files on this website.

This is a question for Bob and or Rick – I want to make some signs and want to raise my letters instead of sinking them in the wood. Do you have a video that explains this process. I have all the letters and numbers, etc. I purchased the Milescraft letter and number set, which are ok but now I would like to raise the letters and numbers. Any thoughts on this matter.

Burt,
This is a pattern problem.
How about buying regular house numbers. Here is a link http://www.westonletters.com/index_23.php?catID=23&file=index.php
Then position them as the pattern instead of the existing patterns you have now. Using the house number remove all the outside material and you will then have raised numbers instead of sunken in numbers. Next you need to build a frame around the sign board that is the same height
