It is very disappointing the COVID times we are in. I am so impressed with Bob's approach and style I would definitely request and pay for a one-on-one class with him. His RU-vids are so helpful, but I have so many nuanced questions that only shop time and getting to know the artist could solve.
Bob, I so much enjoy your tutorials. Thank you for selflessly sharing your techniques with the woodworking community. I'm currently mimicking some of your designs to up my game.
Watched all your videos several times "start to finish". Would love to take a class from you "when the world is normal, non-COVID-19" to learn your techniques. ...
Unfortunately, I see that it is no longer on the market. I purchased it from Lee Valley several years ago. Subsequently, I saw that it was designed by Ian Hawthorne in the UK, and they apparently he and Lee Valley had a falling out over attribution, royalties or whatever, and Lee Valley stopped selling it. Ian was always saying he was going to produce and sell it instead, but haven't seen it since.
@@bobdickey Thanks for the reply, I actually build board games for a living. I have a squaring chisel. But the design of yours seems more stable and low profile. I will do some research.
I look for the line drawn on the panel and make sure I stop before hitting it. The open router base and light definitely help, but before I had that, I used a desk lamp to illuminate the area so I could see the line.
