You know, maybe, JUST MAYBE, I got a couple of those things mixed up. All week long I work with .PDFs on these computer thangs...I think I might, maybe, should've written "MDF" - medium density fiberboard. Oh well.

I really "nibble away" at the wood and haven't had a tearout problem (yet)...I'll take a bit less next pass and see how it goes. You are right, what difference does an extra 10 minutes take.

Now...back to the router.
