At our May meeting, Chris demonstrated the latest jig he built – the Gizmozilla from an article by Kenneth Speed in Popular Woodworking (Oct 2012) – perfect for the Triton router.
After demonstrating the features of the club’s new Triton Router (the TRA001B is slightly different to the older model), Chris took us through its many uses on the gizmozilla, including precise mortise and tenons, trenching and fluting.
Chris also showed us a video of an amazing slot mortising machine created by Matthias Wandel – inspiring!
Then, as a further follow up to Jimmy’s talk at our March meeting on cabinet making, Brian demonstrated how to cut laminate on the router table, followed by trimming using a router bit with a bottom bearing. Brian also showed us the right hand thumb and forefinger method of determining cutting direction for the trimmer.
Craig then showed his sanded horse, after sanding with his angle grinder with a backing pad, followed by the sanding attachments on his Arbortech Miniturbo – it’s now ready for the rails and painting.
