I was waiting to see the router Bits you use for this door shape . You say on the video you going to show it later but you didn’t. Great video by the way!

Hello Hugo and thanks for viewing and commenting! Actually, I didn't say I'd show you any router bits, technically I used 'shaper' cutters in this video. Similar but made for larger, stationary machinery rather than hand held routers. What I stated was that I'd show you the profile, which I did at 3:02 in the video. I'll be back uploading videos beginning next month (extremely OVER busy schedule lately) and I'll upload a video showing all the literally hundreds of shaper cutters and router bits I utilize in my shop. I have about a dozen shapers +/- and about four dozen routers, including hundreds of cutters and bits for those. Yikes! Thanks for the compliment and make sure you click on the bell to be advised when I upload more videos. Have a great weekend my friend! mike

That clam trick was a good one. I have 2 of that exact clamp...well 1 and a 2nd with a broken clamp face. They were a throw in on a purchase of some 2nd hand gear. I have used it as a saw guide. I will add that to the arsenal of tricks. I enjoyed the video

I to run a cabinet shop and do a lot of the same things that you do. On my stile shaper I closed that gap in the fence out by making a two piece fence and letting the cutters cut a path into the fence and then pulled them back slightly and mounted them. So it’s almost a zero clearance fence. I can run much shorter pieces now. If you are making as many doors as I think you are you should think of investing in a door clamp, or as I did and make one. Costed me five hundred to build it in pneumatic cylinders and switches, best money I ever spent. Last thing, I run all those little round over bits in trim routers. Easier and faster than a big router. I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.

Mikey, you don't run into any issues with tearout when running the rails through the shaper perpendicular on the sled like someone (me lol) would see using a router table? I always have to run a scrap piece behind to avoid it.

John, thanks for stopping in! To answer your question - no.. If you look close when I'm running the cope on my custom built sled - if you freeze frame you can see there is a piece of wood built into the sled that does exactly what you've done - it backs up the cut and prevents tear-out. That's not to say it avoids it 100% of the time, but it does pretty much eliminate it. My backup piece is removable and I do replace it periodically. And, because I run my cope first - if there should be a little bit of either tear-out or splintering, when I follow up with the sticking, you might have noticed I ran two passes each side. I have the fence set to remove 1/16" on each pass, so if there is any splintering or tear-out, that 1/8" would have cleaned it up. Notice I did visually hold the pieces up to the light to ensure I was clean with my cuts. Nice observation on that note John!
