Making a simple DIY router jig for the lathe

[@merontfeelta2557]

A useful device. And grooves can be made, and pigtails can be carved. GooD)))))))

Thank you

Thanks for this. I've been researching a way to use my Dremel or a router on the lathe without a whole bunch of hoopla. This is the simple, easy peasy way I have been looking for. I'm going to try making the jig with a bottom that fits the tool rest, so it can just be grab and go... But seeing the stability of your wooden tool rest, that will be my backup plan. Instead of building some big platform and using a cross slide table or some other super expensive and complicated method. Thanks again 👍

I am glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching and commenting

Nice work Demitris! That looks like a handy little jig as long as it's not used while the lathe is spinning! But you already know that.... 👍👍😉😉

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you. Definitely not working with a spinning lathe. Too dangerous.

[@toddatglencovewoodworks]

Excellent jig and demonstration! I’ve recently seen another where a Dremel type tool was mounted on a hinged board on a tool post which offered many possibilities.

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you. Dremel could work but it is not that strong for routing.

[@toddatglencovewoodworks]

@@ScrapwoodCity I was referring to embellishing the turning not really routing . Check out Wayne the Woodturner, "Woodturning | oak pot pourri" episode (Mar 20, 2022). There are other videos where he uses different attachments on the tool like a cut off wheel. Thanks for all the entertainment!

Very Interesting and I can see some use for it. Do you have a project planned for it in the near future?

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you. Yes I've got a few ideas in mind!

Are we looking forward to a scrap wood pool cue??

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Not really. At least for now!

[@sailorjerry45]

@@ScrapwoodCity well I’ll keep watching and you keep up the good work!

[@simonreynolds1518]

that's one useful jig you built there, have you tryed using it with the piece of wood turning in the lathe?

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Thank you. No, I haven't. I think it will be pretty dangerous. I wouldn't recommend trying something like that out.

[@simonreynolds1518]

@@ScrapwoodCity Fair enough, but at least now cutting in dado and dovetail joints will be so much easier, thanks for posting, take care.
