Re: SS overarm router setup to make bow tie/butterfly inlays

This is a small three legged Butternut plant stand made using the technique you described. But the inside edge was made by hand using the SS turning gouge.reible wrote:Nice to see someone getting some use out of their OPR.
I liked the use of the router inlay set. Those sets do a really good job of making tight fitting parts. I have both the 1/8 and 1/4" sets.
I don't know if you have a dishing bit but the OPR can be used to plane the stock down so you don't have to do much work with height issues. On thin stock double side tape it to a carrier board, in fact I even do that on thicker stock to make it easier and safer to use.
