routing end grain plywood
How can you avoid the router cutter from end grain splintering the surface of the plywood on the edge of the cut ??? I am using an Ogee cutter. Would using masking tape or scoring the edge of cut with a utility knife prevent the splintering ??
I would say don't do it that way......
It would be a lot easier to attach a piece of wood to the plywood edge and route that. BTW plywood is end grain every other layer.... so you can also expect chip outs and a lot of sanding and filling, and you still might get the top/bottom layers coming off in slivers after the fact depending on gain/type of wood/ and other factors.
