I’ve been thinking about that collet extension since I saw it. Magnificent.

The collet extension is a lifesaver. Glad you like this! Thank you!

I did this, there is so much heat build up even if I only take off the smallest amount. It has to do with the wood species, how sharp your bit is and how fast you go. My suggestion is if you have access to a drillpress and some big forstner bits, use those to hog out most of the center waste and then use the bowl bit to finished the edges because that saves time, your bit and a lot of heat/wood chips/dust flying around.

I like the 1/2" perspex u used here for the router. I was only using a 1/4" one that I had and I kept wondering why the depth in some areas was different. What u said was a great tip so now I will be buying a 1/2" base from now on. Thanks for that great tip man.. Love these bowls. I think they'll make nice gifts for family who eats chips and nuts and that type of thing when watching movies..

Loved the video. I have a question. Did you have to use longer screws for the new router plate. If so, what did you use.
@thewoodsmithstore4 ай бұрын
Thanks for the compliment of our video! Yes, longer screws had to be used for the new router plate. Just go to a local hardware store to purchase the longer screws that match the screws (threads) that came with the router. Thank you for your question!

What do you use to clean the belt?
@thewoodsmithstoreАй бұрын
We use what we call a Pro Stick or crepe stick. It lasts a long time and you can use it on any kind of belt sander. Get yours here: thewoodsmithstore.com/product/woodstock-pro-stik-abrasive-belt-disk-cleaner/

where did you get the acrylic base for your router?

We bought the acrylic base at a local plastic/acrylic store in Des Moines, Iowa here. ProfessionalPlastics.com

Beautiful bowls! why not use 1/4 or 3/8” material for the template?
@thewoodsmithstore Жыл бұрын
You could, but that would require a deeper cut initially in order for the guide bearing to engage the template. Personally I like to take 1/8" passes, which requires a thicker template to engage more of the guide bearing in those first 2-3 passes.

Can I ask what process you used to create the bowl templates? Especially the one you use in the video.

Quick question, how do you plunge with a flat bottom bit? I've got a similar bit from another manufacturer that I've been thinking of replacing, but i want to make sure I'm understanding how to use it, that it isn't my fault it isn't working well. I get lots of burns trying to use mine, but if i don't push the bit down fairly hard, it just kind of skims the surface, barely cuts. Do you need to predrill a hole for the bit to use to start off? To be clear I'm just trying to put the radius on the edge of the bowl wall in this case, the bowl is already at the depth it needs to be, just trying to get the radius along the bottom edge.
@thewoodsmithstore Жыл бұрын
Try turning the speed down a bit. as you plunge begin to move the router so that the router isn't sitting at one location for any amount of time. Also, make sure your bit is sharp. To be honest with you, I occasionally get burning as well. It usually sands away. Hope this helps.

is using a collet extension in a hand router safe? I was always told they should only be used in a router table.
@thewoodsmithstore Жыл бұрын
Sorry for the delay. I use the collet in my hand-held router whenever I'm routing bowls. But I always use it in the router with the 12" x 12" acrylic base. And I don't lift the router out of the cut until the motor has stopped completely!

Wouldn't using a forstner bit to do most of the hogging out of material be faster/easier?
