Tauntons Complete Illustrated Guide to Routers

Taunton's Complete Illustrated Guide to Routers. Author, Lonnie Bird

Routers are among the most versatile cutting tools in a woodworker's arsenal, yet few of us have mastered all the possible uses of a router. In part one, Lonnie Bird's excellent book thoroughly covers routers and accessories including router tables, as well as the wide variety of router bits and how to set up and care for them. Part two covers in detail the basic operation of a router, including making common cuts, routing edges and making moldings and use of flush-trimming bits. Part three covers router joinery and part four delves into routing with templates and performing special shaping operations.

The format of the book relies heavily on the hundreds of well-captioned color photos that clearly illustrate all the techniques needed to become a router expert. A good index makes the book an excellent reference.
