I need to do a couple of raised panel doors for a cabinet to match existing doors in the bathroom. I have a PC 7539 router, the 3-1/4 HP, five speed monster they make. The raised panel bit is 3-1/2 inches in diameter. You all got the picture so far?? Anyway, I got the router set up in the table, grabbed a piece of scrap to do I test run. I hung on pretty tight as I figured that minster router and huge bit were going to grab pretty good! I was right, I still have not found that piece of scrap!! The sucker went flying into some cluttered coner of the shop. All I know for sure is the piece scrap was there, and a fraction of a second later it was gone, and I heard it bounce off the wall somewhere to my right! I think I need to practice this some more, and maybe get the fence on, instead off the pin, and take a few more passes! The best part is all fingers are still intact! Greg
