After wasting enough board feet to piss me off. I found a few problems with my router table and corrected them, but I still am having problems. Any suggestions on how to calibrate the Glue bit to the wood? I just can't afford to waste a day with the hunt and cut method.
I'm a bit concerned and may be right that the router (Sears 17533 1/4), the table ( Craftsman Professional Router Table, Laminate #26608) and me aren't up for this job. For the most part, for all the jobs I've used these, I haven't had a problem. The tolerance with the glue bit, seems just to be frustrating me. I found the plastic bumper that runs around the table, extended above the table. Shaved that! Then everytime I tightened down the fence, it threw off the face plate, found that the vacuum table hood extended below the fence, so as I tightened the fence the piece would bow the plate, cut that away. Could also use some ideas regarding setting up the fence too!
TIA, Joe
