When routing a body shape you need to pay attention to the direction of the cutter with respect to the grain of the wood. Sometimes you go in one direction ............ sometimes in the other. I think of it as "making sure the cutter isn't cutting uphill into the grain". Maybe someone else has a better way of describing it. |
Thanks for the advice. My mother in law has a router and router table that is just collecting dust in my brothers shed. Time to clean it off and put it to work.
One more question. Would I still need a band saw for trimming down the stock for making a neck?
