@woodworkerroyer8497 4 года назад

You say "I've got a lot of them [routers]" I have 2 and I have only used a router 15 times in my life! I've always heard that you are supposed to bottom out the bit, then pull it 1/8" or so. Is there a reason you dont? Was that an old fashioned idea that was made null by modern router precision?

@woodworkerroyer8497 4 года назад

Does your dewalt 618 have a jerky plunge motion? Mine does if I push down on the small column side... other than that it's great though!

@eyygurke6081 Год назад

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.

@Andrew-mx6jy 4 года назад

As someone that has slowly been transitioning myself from fumbling through remodeling projects on the fixer-upper house we bought a couple of years ago to more advanced woodworking over the past year for both more complicated home projects and as a hobby - videos like this have been SO essential. This makers/woodworking community on RU-vid has made learning what I'm doing much less intimidating than it could be. The videos are not patronizing and it lets us learn at our own pace. This channel in particular has been a hell of a resource for me. Thank you and keep up the great work!!

@BurkeMakesStuff 4 года назад

So other than finding JKM really entertaining and his advice absolutely sound, for the 6th time, since i subscribed to this channel, one of your video's topics aligns EXACTLY to what I'm hyper focused on in building my own skill sets and abilities. I LITERALLY told a friend of mine last week that the next thing i need to seriously start looking into is getting my router game on point, but that I was scared to pull the trigger because i know ZERO about them! Once again, JKM comes to the rescue! I'm constantly impressed by the way you rock this stuff out! Thank you.....again! Side note: I'm SUPER excited because I JUST found out that an multi-part sculptural piece that I've been helping a friend build is going to be shown as an installation at the United Nations for a NFP in NYC! Super proud!

Thanks So much!

Just saw this video after watching a few of your other videos. Thankfully I bought the 2 1/4HP Bosch Fixed/Plunge router kit with the fancy edge guide first time around. My thinking was more along the lines of not wanting to buy the cheapest only to realize I needed more later. Glad I did after watching this!

@SandyMasquith 4 года назад

Thank you! I purchased the Dewalt 618 many years ago. Still a great platform! I want to do a router table, so this timing is great. This time I’m gonna buy the templates!! My Moxon vise works, but it doesn’t look so nice. I should have bought your moxon template set. Lesson learned on that! The router still intimidates me, but your videos are making me realize how useful a tool it is. Your teaching is greatly appreciated.

inserting bit in collet: I use O-rings on the bit shaft to keep from bottoming out the bit. Works great.

@Tensquaremetreworkshop 4 года назад

I have the Triton in my router table- very good. Especially like the auto spindle lock on full up- no longer need a third hand to position bits. Made the rest- cheapest route to a quality router table.

I opted for the Milwaukee 3 1/4 hp router. It's a hoss as well. I haven't used any of the Triton tools, but as the need arises I may try one. Great video.

@scottsimpey2965 4 года назад

I have what I think is the sam dewalt router, it came with the fixed base a plunge base and a d-handle base which I have never used the d-handle base. Incredible router. I ended up getting the Mikita cordless route because probably 95% of the router work that I do is trim routing. I absolutely love the my Makita though simply for being cordless, both are great machines of two different categories of routers as you mentioned.

@ShutterUp 4 года назад

Good Video, I have the big Triton (Beast) and it never leaves the router table. It has a few minor pros and cons but overall you can't beat it. I have a Dewalt palm and looking for the middle router, this helped. I think I'm going to go Dewalt on the middle router.

@Love4raine 4 года назад

Ok so I’m venturing into the deep waters of routers. I’m so glad I stumbled and subscribed to your channel . This video helped me TREMENDOUSLY !!!! I have a large scope of all kinds of power tool from various drills to planer jointers and saws. My point being I’m fortunate ( to have a WONDERFUL BEAUTIFUL WIFE that buys everything IF SHE SEES IT AND THINKS ID LIKE IT ) in case she’s reading this guys ... but the one thing I do not have because know nothing about it is the router. I’ve used a table router in wood shop in school like 35-40 years ago but that’s it.. so after viewing your video I’m going with the DeWalt and whatever accessories it has. Now my question is ( unless you have a video send a link ) WHEN WOULD YOU USE A TABLE ROUTER VS USING FREEHAND ? I am going to start watching YOUR videos and learn this tool to its fullest abilities. I REALLY want to master this tool . She’s ALREADY printing out projects for me to build that require this tool and stacking them on my nite stand 😂😂 and also require pocket jigs. Lol. Yeah she bought that machine now also. Not that complicated even tho it’s big. NOTE: yes I am very good with woodworking and very familiar with all power tools and joints and building etc. just about anything , just not this tool. Always seemed kind of complicated. That’s all... thank you .

@shaynesabala Год назад

Thank you so much. This is the best basic router video I have seen. I have the Kreg router table and the dewalt’s router that you recommended in that table with the Kreg lift ((300$) and I agree, the lifts are all basically the same. Mine works great. I have a palm router but quickly realized I need a third router for bigger stuff not going to my table. I have been over thinking it but the truth is (after watching your video) I need to buy another dewalt. Great stuff my friend, thank you.

@troyladoux1953 3 года назад

I recently purchased the Bosch MCR32EVSK and it has the built in ability to be adjusted from the both sides; top and bottom. It is a beast for a medium power router and I love the soft start on it. The plunge lever works great and seems robust and the built in trigger in the handle is great. I was initially intimidated by its weight compared to my old, old Porter Cable. My biggest complaint are the plastic dust collection parts (sold separately) they feel cheap and flimsy. My first use was with guide bushings. I picked up the Bosch RA1129 Template Guide Adapter which included the insert for standard, screw on, guide bushings and it worked like a charm and it is tooless. Like I said, dust collection works great but installing the plastic pieces is a real pain.

@jd7499 4 года назад

Ordered and received the Katz-Moses Dovetail Jig and love it. Just started a woodwork course here in Dublin Ireland. Would highly recommend it. Amazing piece to work with for Dovetails. First time I seen it was on Matt Estlea.

@katzmosestools 4 года назад

Thanks bud!

@wb_finewoodworking 4 года назад

Great video Jonathan. I have several routers but haven’t bought a palm router yet. It looks like that will be my next router purchase. The idea of using a table saw to rout out the center of dovetails sounds great. It seems that would really be a good technique for sliding dovetails. I’m thinking that if I have the sliding dovetail set up on my router table I could rout out the center with a straight spiral bit first then change over to the dovetail bit.

@gateslattes4686 3 года назад

Thanks for the lesson! Amazing video.

@50plymouths 2 года назад

I love my Bosch 1617 router that’s 2 1/4hp it’s got a micro adjustment in the fixed base that can be used in a router table without needing a lift like the triton

@TrevorDennis100 4 года назад

The Big Triton TRA001 is almost a no brainer for fitting to a table, because like you said, it is all you need. Ours is fitted to a Kreg table and there were clear marks in the top plate to drill for fitting. It worked out way way cheaper than getting a spindle motor and lift and you have this uber powerful motor that is a pleasure to use. There are some gotchas to be fair. The Triton needs to be wound all the way up to engage the spindle lock for changing bits. So to ensure that is not engaged with the motor running there is an interlock controlled by a plastic cover that slides back to reveal the on/off switch. Of the dozen or so people who use ours (Blenheim Menz Shed NZ) some do seem to struggle to find that switch and cover to start with, but if you push back the cover with your middle finger, you can operate the rocker switch with your index finger. Once turned on we use a remote on/off switch. NOTE: If you are outside the USA and have 240V mains then the Kreg on/off switch will not handle the current safely. Another downside is that the thread for adjusting the height is 14tpi which is not particularly useful for metric. I have a disk calibrated for millimetres that I laminated, and fitted to the above table winder. Email if you'd like the file trevor.dennis@xtra.co.nz One last thing. Myself and another Shed member both have well used Ryobi ERT241200, and they have both developed significant end float. One was used in the Kreg table for quite a while where it did not seem to be a problem, but when used as a hand router the end float allowed the bit to drop into the work piece going deeper than intended. A job was ruined finding this out.

@kenn1936 2 года назад

You are correct - I am terrified of my Router. It came out of the box, and I had a quick look, and have not plugged it in yet. I am still trying to work out what is what on the all the attachments. There appears to be scaffolding stuff to put around the router????? and long rods??? totally baffled!! Thank you for doing this fabulous video, I think I may have worked it out now , thanks to your video.🤪

@TrevorDennis100 3 года назад

The Triton routers are great for table mounting as you don't need a lift, and you still have precise depth control from above the table. I've used the big TRa001 and slightly smaller MOF001 and love them. An issue I have not found a solution for with them is that the power switch has an interlock that prevents the bit being wound up to its locking position. This means you _have_ to be able to access the router body to change bits, and that makes dust collection under the table an issue. I have a big Ryobi router at home that is many years old and I still use at home (the Tritons are at my Menz Shed) despite it developing end float. A friend has the same router with the same problem. It's OK used upside down, which means clamped in my vice at the moment, but can creep into the job making the cut too deep when used right way up. I also have a Makita palm router at home which I love, and use much more than the Ryobi. My issue with that is that there is no fine height adjustment control. Just the clamp, so you have to nudge it and hope. I now want the convenience of a proper table router at home, and will use the Triton MOF001. Unfortunately we have to pay a premium for 240volt versions, but not needing a lift makes them a no brainer choice in my opinion.

@wayfastwhitie455 4 года назад

Put blue loctite on the threads for your triton router lock lever, it will keep it from vibrating out. I started with a medium duty vintage craftsman and than bought the Bosch medium with fixed and plunge base. Than grabbed up a Dewalt palm router with fixed and plunge as well, the plunge base has came in handy for me mainly using different jigs. Would like to pick up the battery palm as well and looking at get a Big Boy here soon, I have some slabs that I need to flatten out so I can get some coffee tables made up. Great video. Switches going bad is common on any electrical tool nowadays.

@philpace2494 4 года назад

That is exactly what I did the 4th time the router lock lever vibrated off - LOCTITE! Actually after the 3rd time I put blue tape over the screw and used a small phillips through the tape to tighten the screw...that meant when it did come off the 4th time I knew where the screw was!

@polver222 4 года назад

@boomerangfreak 3 года назад

Having recently bought the dewalt DCW604NT cordless router it kind of opened my eyes. At first I thought I'd only really be using it for chamfering and rounding over edges and never really thought I'd be using a plunge base anytime soon but was I wrong! As I only really have resources for 1 router at the moment I am very glad that mine came with a fixed and plunge base along with several other accessories. I totally understand the use of multiple routers especially the larger routers but doing this just as a hobby and trying to keep my budget and space constraints in check I can't really justify 2 routers, YET! :D Now that I have the router though I keep seeing more opportunities and ideas to use it, although I fear my basic bit set might need expanding :P

@cjsawinski 3 года назад

My Bosch 1617 hasn’t let me down yet! I spent $50 for the “router table base” rather than $200 on a lift... it mainly sits in that router table... when I want to use it hand held just pull it out of the lift and go... I also have 3 makita palm routers, one is the battery one. I’m a carpenter by trade so one pretty much stays in the truck or jobsite and the others are in my shop... the cordless ones are awesome for the jobsite! I have to custom mortise all kinds of heavy duty door hardware (mostly the hidden pneumatic hinges that sit above and below the door slab) having the cordless in its plunge base and a custom made template I can just cruise around the whole house and knock out all the hardware mortising!

@hardnox6655 4 года назад

Great review Jonathan. I got rid of my Triton routers. I hated them. The on/off switch is crap and in an awkward location. Parts falling off was also annoying. Granted they are powerful but they are nothing more than cheap Chinese junk. Now I have several Bosch routers which I really enjoy using.

I've had great luck with my Bosch 2.25hp; came with .25 and .5 inch collets, and fixed(in my router table) and plunge bases. I have many great Dewalt and Makita tools, but my 2 cents about my Bosch router.
