Default router questions


wrote in message
ups.com...
I am rounding the corners of some 3/4" hard maple and at times the wood
will split out a small piece where I am turning the corners. Can
someone tell me how to avoid this?

thank you!!

Make the first pass shallow and only at problem areas reverse the direction
that you are pushing the router.
