Nice work, great ideas. The thing I liked most was the chain link thumb screw. Really liked the way you cut that extra long slot.👍👍👍👍👍

Nice build. Now you could do with adding some servo motors/belts and microcontroller so it can run on its own.

Get this man a plasma cutter for his birthday, Patrons!

[@ELUSsSIVE]

Or just a planer instead

[@Bob_Adkins]

Excellent engineering, excellent skills! Now you can make a shoe to hold a hand planer, a shoe for an electric drill for drilling large hole patterns. You could even do wood-turning with the router using that frame.

[@davidbwa]

nice job. thanks for showing the practical use for it at the end because that was not clear to me at first since there wasn't much height adjustment. Chain link as all thread handle seems like a nice idea.

Kinda like a CNC router? Can you pre-program it or is it just a control as you go type thing?

I just set mine up on liner bearings no need to keep adjusting slide

[@be007]

[@uncleronny6748]

Great project and Thank You for making it outta metal. My biggest criticism of woodworkers is they make ALL their jigs from stinking wood scraps. I guess this is okay for a one-off run or occasional use but long term and accurate: nope.

[@drfrankensteinscreations]

Well, we use what we know or have around. This would definitely last a lot longer if you plan on doing a lot of slabs for more than just the near future. And it depends on what type of wood you use. Softer woods like pine will definitely loosen and wear but harder stock like oak will last longer and be more durable. Sure the cost will rise and I admit I never have scrap oak large enough for something like this laying around. But furniture builders who would use this more than I would are more likely to have more hardwood offcuts. That being said I really do like the bearing idea which wouldn't work so well on wood rails.

[@markvbickley]

Great build but if that's what you built it for, why a router & not a planer? 3" each pass would be a lot quicker 😊

[@invictusbp1prop143]

A planer can only do one thing, at one depth, in one direction. A router can run different bits that will cut in the x and y, plus can plunge to varying depth in the z. You could cut inlays or designs and many things a planer could not. Plus planets are unruly and wouldn't be able to be out into the work and run constantly without need to stop at the end of each pass and pick up the tool to relocate it. But a router is always cutting. Plus you can get larger surfacing nuts for the router that would give a wider pass.

[@markvbickley]

@@invictusbp1prop143 Fair enough 👍

[@BuhdaPunk]

x and y worm screw with server and could make it automated. Find an old 3d printer with decent servo's little marlin code and off you go.

[@madwilliamflint]

[@david667766]

Would be a waste not to get some stepper motors on this now and relax from your chair as it runs itself

[@elimanlapaz878]

Water jet and LASER cutting will do it faster.

[@andrzejfabianski4948]

Where's the point of NOT DOING rolls for movement in other axis? X and Y should be possible to use and lock if don't needed. Now You got nice, smooth movement in one direction, and completely disaster in other one. Good idea stopped in half way.

[@raytry69]

Don't ruin such a good idea and video with a cheap clickbait title.

[@martynellis387]

😊😊😅

[@uwerost9607]

other useful idea, nobody never heard of before: wheels! I´m kind of flabbergasted after seeing this. I expected something at least new or outstanding. And then u r showing how to construct a flattening slab - something well known for decades now (for people interested in woodworking)?! btw: u might have heard of a material called aluminum? u might not know, but there are people out there making extrusions of this. so u could have saved at least 70% of your affords by using those instead of treating steel. Last but not least: try to learn about using tools in the right way! Especially forward speed and how deep u go with your (hand-)router. I guess, your nice (and btw well engineered) Bosch router will not last for more than 6 months if you use it daily (what would be a shame for this tool). Mankind distinguishes from apes not by using tools! (in fact they do that too) The difference is made by learning to use them in the right way from others who are experienced. What u r showing is a nice example how to fail.

[@andiestwo5]

I made this same thing, but with wood. It works exactly the same and very well. I use it for leveling cutting boards.

[@wr3ncher]

Nice build, can't fault it. I would of saved time and bought a planer. Far more versatile and practical.

[@edmundnyamupepema]

Cool engineering and fabrication dexterity there, thank you!! I will definitely try to make one for my workshop. Your skill in invaluable!! I could have liked it 100k times if it was possible

[@daved2082]

Even better if he made this a CNC table. Start it up, come back later to it being milled. How tedious to have to manually router that much surface.

[@tomprovan50]

you can also build all or most of that out of unistrut bolt together and it has sliding wheels I just built one for a winch . You might want to weld the plate in the middle or bolt?

[@valterbalucca6049]

Per un lavoro più preciso il cuscinetto sotto lo dovevi aver montato su un asse eccentrico per potere eliminare il gioco del carrello dall'alto in basso.

[@watahyahknow]

might use the same thing in combination with a beltsander to get the last of the grooves made by the router out

[@drfrankensteinscreations]

The grooves are from a slight tilt of the router. If this is leveled right it really wouldn't take more than a pass with a palm sander to clean it up. A locking bolt in each corner to adjust the lower rails in regard to the bench and you're golden.

[@johnsalmon119]

Wow fantastic absolutely brilliant 🤩

[@o.w.dobbins6927]

WellDone my freind i’m a retired ProfessionalWoodworker and in my trade we have made many Wooden Router Sleds that do work to get the job done but just don’t last for more similiar Jobs as Wood is not a Stable product and can dimensionally change with tempertures, and Humidty Levels drastically

[@dondamon443]

How is this different than just a simple planer?? It's a nice idea, but seems a little time consuming. Just my observation.

[@cartestgroupoy2441]

CNC machines are basically made like that and then they connect with computer and you can draw on timber or metal from picture in your computer.

[@frederickrodger7249]

Great video. I appreciate all of the special/production effects.

[@rogervondach1238]

Well, it's all nice and dandy, however, we don't need to see how it slides 10 times and it has absolutely nothing to do with the picture (click-bait). And somehow I can't stand people that can't do anything without wearing gloves. Did he wear safety glasses and a hardhat as well?

[@simonblack4203]

You sneaky devil!

[@solarguy6043]

Nicely done! But exposed bearings/wheels on a flat steel square tube will be a problem because of chips, debris, etc. You could cover it to keep the chips out, or you could rotate the tubes 45* and use two sets of wheels, one on each of the top surfaces.

[@markvbickley]

That's a great idea 👍

[@rollovaughan]

Keep them completely open I say as no matter how well you try to shield them chips and dust Will get to them and cause them to go lumpy. I guarantee this and will put money in it. Completely open and exposed they can be wiped instantly ,kept grease free and working at all times. I’ve ran many a bridge saw and timber mill. Down time cleaning shielded runners is an unwelcome job.

[@claudiobonanno2620]

[@steveciarico9824]

[@donaldhamel9311]

No slab height adjustment. Your stuck with a certain thickness to begin with, so your cutting parameters are very small. Can't level a 6 inch Butcher block in that thing. My design is is simpler and less engineering and less material to build it and it's adjustable to any thickness, and I mean any thickness

[@J.T.19134]

[@mikeransom1168]

Really good build presentation. I liked the "magic" touches to avoid boring sequences.

[@jonjonr6]

After your first use, I can see room for next gen improvement. Like, roller bearings for the crossbeams so the advance movement to the next row is smooth and straight. And, some sort of adjustable stock sled or other method to adjust the height to adapt for stock thickness. I'm thinking though, something like this, with a router. Or, something like this with a hand planer. I have routers, but a hand planar takes off more width per pass. Maybe it could have some sort of stop for each cut width. Then you could just do a pass, move the the planar over one width step, make a pass. The only problem is, you usually make your passes down the length, not cross, so your jig would limit the length of work.
