good vid, but you definitely need to invest $20 in one good ratcheting wrench so the bit exchange can go faster/smoother!

[overcastwithshowers]

@rono8582 That is a good idea, messing about with a spanner is a pain.

excellent sturdy board @ 3:20 ;) In all seriousness, TY for the video and demo on the use of a router. I have one in a box I've had for years and never used it. Now, I have that added confidence of being a master craftsman from this vid alone.

[overcastwithshowers]

@backyardsounds Thank you for your kind words.

[overcastwithshowers]

@backyardsounds good luck and follow all safety stuff. a friend cut his fingers off the other day using a circular saw.

Those cutters must be really hot to need oven gloves to handle, but better safe than sorry I suppose...lol

This router is the same as the Elu #3304.

[Tiqitproductions]

Fucking brillant mate!! I came to see how to use a router and I ended up laughing my face off!!! You are a genuis!!!looooool!!

[overcastwithshowers]

@Tiqitproductions Thanks, you are one of the few who understood the video.Have a look at my sander video.

[Tiqitproductions]

@overcastwithshowers You know what!! I soon as you said: " It's YELLLOW..." I knew I was in for a good laugh!! I started from there....and all the way.looooooooooooool. a breath of fresh as opposed to the videos of the Yankees!!! too serious!!

[Tiqitproductions]

Anyone who dislikes this video has no sense of humour...and may as well not use a router!!!looool!! It's like people who say they like comedy and don't like Tommy Cooper.

[faostube]

lol that was just epic.

[caredvill23]

Are you sure you know how to use a router. It is irresponsible to present a video that shows no minimum safety standards for working with powertools, for example, securing the piece on the workbench.

[MMAengland]

@caredvill23 haha yeh,this video is how NOT to use a router,unbelievable

[Tiqitproductions]

@caredvill23 YEEEEEEEEEEEEAH right!! You got five minutes of comedy and you complaining!! I'm buying a router soon and I think I learned a lot through this video. Alle the safety measures are there! You just have to listen...Mister Mary Whitehouse!!!

[xxIceWaLLxx]

I wouldnt use this video as a "how to" guide.

you should have that wood clamped down and should never go backward, always go from left to right... cutting IN the direction of the spin is dangerous.

I didnt rate your video bad because I dont think you made the mistakes on purpose but keep in mind you are using a piece of machinery capable of around 24,000 rpm with a VERY sharp bit!!! not something that you want to skip on safety.

[faostube]

@xxIceWaLLxx I read on a site that a single blade on a bit usually travels at around 16 thousand miles per hour at 24,000 rpm that is some serious shit if that bit where to get loose!

[imogenjohnstone]

@xxIceWaLLxx are you actually serious!!!!!!!!!!!! did you really believe this was a real guide?? skip on a sense of humour!!!

[sallysebast]

that is quality. i think i am now ready to give this a go myself! x

[overcastwithshowers]

@sallysebast We can start your first lesson when you come over next.
