cutting table top
wrote: i would like to cut bean and boomerang shape tables out of 3/4 inch. plywood.ive been told a router will not do this on one cut with a jig & using a band saw to smoo9thly cut a continious curve is difficult.any input on how you would do this would be greatly appreciated. A router can do it in one cut if you do it this way. Make a pattern out of hardboard or plywood Trace onto your 3/4 ply Cut out freehand on a bandsaw or with jigsaw leaving the line Attach pattern to your 3/4 using screws or double-stick tape Use a pattern cutting bit in your router to make the finish cut OR Attach pattern to your 3/4 with screws or double-stick tape Make 3 passes with your router taking ~1/4 at a time This method requires a thicker pattern |
