Is the router table a better miter/bevel-cutting tool than the table saw?

  • @hymandumas3901
    This old Marine turned wood worker learns more every time I watch one of your videos than I do watching several from other professional wood workers. Thank you
  • @artswri
    I find that any angled cuts like these are invariably more challenging than they look. These are great tips for achieving high quality cuts (and are quite nicely safe as well.) Thanks for another video that will directly improve my woodworking skills!
  • @markproulx1472
    Excellent tips here. I also appreciate the fact that you get down to business instead of blathering on like numerous YouTubers do. Finally, big thumbs up for not playing music during the video.
  • Top notch content. Can't get this kind of multi-faceted approach to problem solving in woodworking anywhere else.
  • @brewster84067
    You must be psychic. I was literally struggling with this today in my shop and knew there must be a better way. THANK YOU - can't wait to try this technique!
  • @johndufford5561
    Thank-you. Very well thought out & demonstrated. Love how, when possible, you show multiple methods to achieve a safe & desired effect. Always appreciate that about you videos, James
  • @thesweetone
    I've been struggling to do a 30degree perfectly and this opened my eyes to using my router. Amazing as always
  • @notasheep199
    I was cutting some miters today on my table saw and was wishing for a better way to get it done. I got a router lift a week ago and ordered the bit 5 minutes ago. I enjoy all of the content you put together and have helped myself and many others enjoy the hobby more than you can imagine. Thanks for the great insights, Mike
  • @deadle_
    This kind of thinking is exactly why I subscribe to this channel, James. Thanks for posting, looks like a large 45 router bit is the newest tool on my list!
  • @dalatina911
    I love how you explain each scenario in detail and how to fix mistakes related to that scenario. I have been trying to learn how to do mitered cuts to make floating box shelves and I keep overthinking everything! I have a router, but not a router table unfortunately! You just earned a new subscriber, thank you!
  • @heystarfish100
    Great information and explanations as I’ve come to expect from James. Even though I’m much experienced I oftentimes learn something new or reinforce vital safety lessons from watching your demonstrations. Thanks James for your wonderful content.
  • @e.t.preppin7084
    I can honestly say in 35 years I never thought to use a router table or shaper for this. Love it
  • @gabrielkoby6308
    Thanks for all the tips. Don’t do much woodworking, but when I do, your tips make it easier.
  • @bearthompson6506
    You always come through to save the day! I’ve been trying to cut a nice long 45° bevel on some pieces of 1/2” plywood for French cleats. I do mostly hand tool stuff so don’t have a lot of experience with my router (table mounted). I figured out my pieces all had humps in the middle of the bevel because the outfeed was no longer flush with the fence by the end. I came here looking for a solution, and lo-and-behold here you are coming to the rescue (and not for the first time). Thanks for all you put into these vids. Cheers 🍻
  • @adrianscarlett
    I built a set of bearing guides for my CNC machine for this purpose. I can feed the material in from one end and have the bearings hold the workpiece at both sides of the cutter. Next upgrade is to add a power feed roller to improve surface finish. It's worth looking at canned cycles and macros for smaller things like drawer boxes
  • This video has totally changed how I cut my miters/bevels. I purchased the larger bit and use it with a Rockler coping sled on my router table. It holds the pieces perfectly and cuts the miters in one pass.
  • I don't do many miter cuts but these tips will come in handy for the next time I have to do one. I really like the Hedgehog feather boards but they are expensive. A set of four would be about $160. Of course you could get by with less that that I suppose. Thank you for sharing James. Have a great day and stay safe.
  • @donalddparker
    Excellent advice I'd not considered. I struggled with my last jewelry box where I put just a tiny bit extra pressure during a few inches on the table saw leading to unclean miters. Definitely give this a try. Cheers!
