I have one question, the bits I have does not seem long enough to exit the guide. Is it a problem with my router not going down enough or should I buy bits with longer shaft ?

I’m a real beginner so sorry if question seems dumb. I’m French canadian too so that might explain my english.

thanks much

Jaybo was enthralled because all 202s are enthralled by 208s; they can’t help it. Great presentation–you made it look easy and I guess I’ll be buying Jamie a router now! smc

I was completely enthralled by your performance – no kidding!! Outstanding show – it’s great to see you in your new environment!

See you soon, bruthah!

If you’re using the kit shown above (including the spiral bit) the rule of thumb is: add 3/16″ to the size of the intended inlay piece. An easy way to do this is to get a compass with a pencil point and set it to 3/16″. Then just trace the outline with the metal point against the mirror. Now you can cut out the shape, sand the edge smooth and you’re ready to rout.

I’d advise you to practice on a piece of scrap first, however, because this “formula” can be thrown off if your bit is not perfectly centered or if you get a little carried away and sand too much off the template.

Good Luck.
