Direction of feed:
DIRECTION OF FEED (FIG. 12)
The direction of feed is very important when routing and can make the difference between a successful job and a ruined
project. The figures show the proper direction of feed for some typical cuts. A general rule to follow is to move the router in a
counterclockwise direction on an outside cut and a clockwise direction on an inside cut.
Shape the outside edge of a piece of stock by following these steps:
1. Shape the end grain, left to right
2. Shape the straight grain side moving left to right
3. Cut the other end grain side
4. Finish the remaining straight grain edge
