- Page 15 Basic Operating Instructions 1) EDGING AND PROFILING One of the most common operations undertaken using a router is Edging or Profiling, i.e. running a shaped cutter along the edge of the work piece. In many instance this is for decorative purposes but it can also be to make a joint or fitting such as a raised panel. Using a router table for this type of work vastly reduces the setting up time required and does away with many awkward clamping devices.
- Page 16 2) GROOVING Grooving and Trenching operations are often carried out to form joints such as slot dovetails or to make fittings such as draw runner grooves. SET THE FENCE - The table is set up in the same manner except the fence will be set further back away from the cutter.
