How about this.... Let me revise the directions a bit and instead of putting the nail in the project piece and instead of using 1/4" plywood lets use 1/2" plywood and put the nail in the plywood and cut the head off at under 1/4". The only downside to the 1/2" sub-base is the router bit needs to be a bit longer to cut right through the 3/4" MDF. Bob and Rick OK Robert,

I also have a question for you.. I like building roll top desks in my spare time.. I would like to know how to make a jig for the router to cut the inside groove for the sliding tamber cover... I have distroyed many pieces trying to come up with a jig for this... Any help on this would be a great help... John... Hi John, Love to help you but that application is discussed in two episodes 911 and 912. It would take a fair amount of info and pictures to explain the jig construction and these posts are not the place to host the information. If you really need this info we can discuss personal coaching you just follow the following link <a href="http://www.routerworkshop.net/contact-us/personal-coaching-with-bob-and-rick/" rel="nofollow">Click here to see personal coaching.</a> I have read the post about the 4 in round hole, I must say it sounds simple and straight forward and I will give it a try…
