Have to find time to watch the whole interview with Roy Underhill. I love The Woodwright's Shop and Roy is just fantastic, and the history of tools fascinates me. I wish he had better impressions of his father's Shopsmith and didn't only remember a dumb statement in an old informercial. Of course he's right about that statement. Real 90s informercial-ly type of statement that I'm sure they all regret now.

When Doug Reid and I met last week to record this past weekend's video we chatted for an hour and a half so some fun parts of the conversation wound up on the cutting room floor. This outtake was one of my favorites, so here it is after all!

Here's the link to the final version of the video: https://youtu.be/-pFWmXpoBuI

Routing beautiful raised panels for doors or wainscoting can be intimidating with high HP routers and large diameter bits. And the cost of those large diameter bits can also give you pause, which is why "vertical" raised panel router bits were introduced. They can be powered by lower HP, non-variable speed router motors, but now they introduce challenges brought on by having to guide the wood through the router table on edge. Using a horizontal router table, like my old Shopsmith Joint-Matic can be the perfect companion to these bits.

Wonder how much CFM is being blocked by the extra table etc.

A DC might work better than that vac!

I think that’s a good point about the auxiliary table possibly causing some constriction. Since all of the air being collected has to pass through either the hole in the slide or around the openings in the base on the back, the path of least resistance is probably the base. I think I need to tape those openings shut and try again. It really is a tight fit on the front with these anti-kickback bits. And yes, I’m sure that a DC3000 or most any dust collector would be an improvement. Scott

I think tapering the open slot to the same dimension as the jointmatic base hole at the bottom would help. Enough? Only the shadow knows.

All the air flow MUST come from that path since the top is obstructed by the workpiece.(IIRC)

P.S. the very small area of the 'tunnel' is restricting. Maybe making it 'deeper' (if even possible).

So he makes an auxiliary table so he can use a miter gauge and then doesn't use a miter gauge. Then the sharp edges of the auxiliary table where it was cut for the miter track leaves score marks on the wood. Isn't just as easy to not make the auxiliary table, not use a miter gauge, and then make the score marks with a knife?
