Nice smell of wood in there I think !

[handygibby1]

[Beastmasterbrett]

@monstrol You know I was thinking today that I should post a video showing how to make this beast. I just hate to give up my secrets!

[grebnel1]

Looks like you've really tuned in the floating router since the last time I stopped by...That's friggin' awesome! Keep up the great work...

[Skeebled]

holy crap, when i saw that log at the begining i thought you were insane, just a few mins. later i figured out you are a genious. very very nice. do you have plans for it? also is it pretty heavy after a while, or since you're sliding it on the guide not so much?

[woodentoolcompany]

@Skeebled The way I got this set up it is real light to handle...The router floats on springs so I more have to push down rather than lift it up. I understand why you thought I was insane LOL! You think this is bad you wanna see some of my other vid's with this rig. This stick was nothing! Sorry no plans yet but if enough people show interest I would concider spending the time to make a set ready. Leave a thumbs up or a comment if your interested in building one of these.

@woodentoolcompany This really is an ingenious machine. Like @Skeebled, I didn't think that piece of wood was good for much more than a camp fire. If you ever decide to make the design available, I'll be grateful.

[OnSPop]

Awesome! What drill/router bit is that? What router?

[MtnWing]

Your work is fascinating. I found myself mesmerized while watching this video.

[srslyusuck]

that rig is freaking awesome!

[woodentoolcompany]

@srslyusuck YOu should see what else it will do! Finger joints, mortise and tenon, it does it all!

[Caleb6543]

Nice. Could you replace the cutting tool with a cylindrical sanding tool and use your set-up to put a nice finish on the piece too?
