FEEDING THE ROUTER The "secret" of professional routing lies in making a careful set-up for the cut and in selecting the proper rate of feed. DIRECTION (EXTERNAL) See Figure 18. When routing, the cutter rotates clockwise. Therefore, you should feed the router into the workpiece from left to right. When you feed the router from left to rig[...]

RATE OF FEED The proper rate of feed depends on several factors: the hardness and moisture content of the wood, the depth of cut, and the cutting diameter of the bit. When cutting shallow grooves in soft woods such as pine, you may use a faster rate of feed. When making deep cuts in hardwoods such as oak, you should use a slower rate of feed. The b[...]

DEPTH OF CUT See Figure 22. As previously mentioned, the depth of cut is important because it affects the rate of feed that, in turn, affects the quality of the cut (and, also, the possibility of damage to the router motor and bit). A deep cut requires a slower feed than a shallow one. A cut that is too deep causes you to slow the feed so much that[...]
