Default router jig for large arcs?

Depending on what materials Bugbear is working on he could do a similar
set up with a 15' or more long aluminum piece...Mount the router on a
piece the width of the router face, 1/4 thickness, length to whatever
you think the maximum length would be. Find your center line and do
the same thing.


Heh. The technique I posted at the start of the thread
will happily do a 1" high, 6' wide curve.

Which would require a 54' trammel bar, which
might be a little unwieldy for people
with smaller workshops.
