I noted that you have a lot of empty space on the sled, which can limit the length of board you can process so I was wonder why you did that. Is it because you plan to install a dust extraction nozzle? If that is the case you would only need the extra space on one side...unless you plan on having two: one on both sides?
How is the seat doing? You glued cross grain together and that doesn’t allow for expansion and contraction. Just curious, you can watch videos saying theory’s, but you don’t know till you experience it!
Love this setup. I have to ask: are just one screw per rail bearing enough to keep it square and straight? Or isn’t more screws necessary because it keeps itself straight by the four bearings?
Question that i cannot find an answer to- can those open-type rail carts ride upside down ? This way you would just mount them flat on a surface, i looked at their insides and it looks like the upper inner side has the exact same lines of ball bearings as the bottom.
I’d watch but when I saw your lack of safety I decided it wasn’t worth my time. I speak with experience of having sawed a finger off. I also gave you a thumbs down hoping to reduce the circulation of the video.

Nice video, can you tel me what size Dia Linear rail you used, it looks like SBR20. I want to build one but not sure if to use SBR16 or SBR20 - 16mm or 20mm Thanks.
Thank you. I like that polycarbonate cradle. And I like the big hole so you can use a big bit easy. One question - your little drill press caught my eye. What make is it?
My god man, you are seriously careless around that spinning blade. No push stick, leaning over the blade to move off cuts with your bare hand? There's comfortable and confident using your tools and then there's needlessly dangerous.
Thank you for the video, do you notice any sag in the middle of the rails when the router is in the middle? Especially if using a router that is 6-7 kg in weight?

I'm used to larger, corded routers ru-vid.comUgkxfQ5_mgwq6PcudJvAH25t-I4D-3cTPz4z so this was a different experience for me. Basically, this is an incredibly sweet machine, fits well in the hand, etc. It has slightly less power than I'm used to, but that's understandable. Maneuvering freehand takes some practice. These days, it's especially nice to be able to avoid power cords. This is above the level of a hobbyist but below a pro level.
I just finished building the handrail on my deck ru-vid.comUgkxfQ5_mgwq6PcudJvAH25t-I4D-3cTPz4z and used this great little router to clean up the top rail before the final sanding and stain. It was light weight but packed lots of power. Either size battery didn't seem to make it top heavy and I'm a 64 yr old women so I really appreciated how easy it was to use...................... CORDLESS only way to go !!
I didn't buy that. Just did DIY. You can purchase the parts here or at amazon.com. www.aliexpress.com/store/4997273?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.399.2c621802XncFKV
I never bottom a router bit in the collet. I always leave some space becasue router bits tend to "freeze" in the collect making them difficult to remove. Loosen the collet and tap the bit the down. that will unstick it .Often by taking the nut off with a wrench it will act as a press and push the bit up and out.
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sbZoXw3qVwA.html This is the one I use. That is made in Korea. So I am not sure they sell to other countries. You can search for something similar on Amazon.com. Adjustable countersink drill bit. I think mine is easier than others. Thanks!
