Let me paint you a picture, and tell me if it looks familiar. You’re in your workshop, on the workbench to your right there’s a stack of walnut blanks, dimensioned to a spindly two inches wide by twelve inches long and a half-inch thick. You’re making – I don’t know – a humidor for your niece; doesn’t really matter, just keep reading. Now, in front of you is your router table, and in that router table is a shiny Lock Miter Router Bit from Infinity Tools. In order to use that router bit, you’re going to need to prop these two-inch wide sticks of wood against the fence VERTICALLY, and run each of them along the cutting edge, one-by-one.
Scary, right? There’s a lot that can go wrong here. You could – and probably will – tilt the wood by accident as it passes over the spinning cutting edge, which will, at best, ruin your joint. At worst, it could kick back and ruin your day.
Relax. Thanks to Infinity Cutting Tools new Vertical Router Sled, this is no longer a scenario to sweat over…
