I tried the tape-over-paper technique and had a ton of trouble. The stencil was reasonably stiff, but the tape melted or was deformed by the bit. Since nothing was holding it to the wood, it often curled back from the original position on the first pass or got nudged by the opening of the router plate when making a second pass. Any thoughts on how I can avoid this?

The routing itself is not as straightforward as it looks. As the direction of the router changes with the shape of the letters, the router wants to lurch forwards when the grain is in a certain direction or travel normally in another direction. I see also that you are using a cylindrical router bit to generate a flat bottomed engraving, not a Vee although I did not notice this being mentioned. The router bit you use must be no greater than the thinnest part of any letter, including any comma or apostrophe. I didn't see this mentioned either. Often engraved signs like this are filled with (I presume) some sort of wax which makes them durable as rainwater does not collect in the channels. We need to know how to do this!

I usually print mine out, and then i use carbon paper to trace the image or letters onto the wood. Then, trace with the palm router. Excellent video.

Omg thank you so much for your comment...so funny but I've been cleaning out an old storage and found a box filled with all types of printer paper and ran into a big box of carbon paper in that box and ide totally forgotten what in the world it was used for...lol so glad I didn't throw it out. Feel sorta stupid, my minds just scattered with moving and things going on right now...but wood carving is a therapeutic thing I do to relieve anxiety and ptsd. That carbon paper is totally going to be helpful with my wood working now that you've reminded me. Thank you!

@cotofolk8705 11 ай бұрын

As I see in the video, your spindle rotates counterclockwise. This means that the drill will not cut, but will slide and heat up. For a feather bit, this is not so important if the sharpening is symmetrical. But screw drills must enter the material according to their sharpening - clockwise. I hope in the 2 years that have passed since the publication of this video, you have already figured out why your drills are breaking at the default speed and have changed the rotation of your spindle in the opposite direction.

Great videos . I am no carpenter of even DIY'er but have recently started to take an interest and accumulated a some tools and began tinkering about with craft type projects . A lot has been sort of instinctive but naive and not the best way of doing things . Videis like yours really help join the dots .

Thanks, good tutorial, not tried Easel before. I measured the RPM of my stock 3018 with a tachometer and it only goes to 7L RPM, a few others have done this also so i think that's probably the real max speed for the stock motor.

Hey, are there router blade that could handle cutting all the way through some thicker hardwoods? Or would I need a scroll saw/ban saw?

@ruidadgmailcanada8508 Жыл бұрын

As a guide, the thickness of the router bit shaft relates to how much material you can remove without overburdening the bit and motor. 1/4” or 6mm shank removes up to 1/4” or 6mm of material at a pass. At my shop we have guys using these smaller trim-routers cutting through 1/2” plywood. 🤦 So you can do it, but the router is screaming “put me out of my misery “ the entire time. 😂 The router motor won’t last as long, bearings will need replacing and worst of all it’ll be a struggle and not enjoyable. Use a Jigsaw or scroll saw for going through the material while being able to cut curves. Hardwood is different to cut for any blade, use a sharp blade and let the blade do the cutting, don’t force it. Hope this helps.

I've been looking at quite a few of this type of routing video over the last months and I think that's the first I've seen with a straight bit rather than some kind of pointed/angled bit, so that it gives vertical sides and a flat base to the cut. Looks good to me - I'll try it when I eventually get around to digging the router out & finding a suitable chunk of wood.

I think that’s as opposed to a cnc produced one. I doubt anyone actually does it by hand ... they’d at least use a chisel (router - just another kind of tool) 😂. In my (albeit limited) experience, using a router takes just as much practise to get a good finish and crisp edges. The outcome was great anyway, as I’m sure you agree. All the best, Gerry

My only comment is to note that the image has to be printed on a LASER JET PRINTER. They use plastic powder that is heated & melted onto the paper.. the thinner melts the plastic & allows the transfer.. this will not work with an ink jet printer..
