Ah, the irony or Zen of Norm

Ok,
Was watching an old Norm show on DIY and it was the TS jig show where
he
talks about his old panel cutter and how he would like to update it.
Well, if we
want one like his new one, he will show us how to make it. Only
problem is
that he uses his OLD panel cutter to cut the panel for the new one! If
you
DON'T have his old panel cutter, and hadn't figured out how to cut a
panel for the jig, you'd be scratching your head and saying: Huh?
Oh, the man is deep very deep!

Changing the subject, but regarding another show was Norm was making
jigs...
He was making a circle cutting jig for his bandsaw. He used his router
with a fence to make a dado down the center of a long board to hold a
nut. He then said: I've installed a smaller bit, adjusted my fence,
and now I'm going to make a slot right down the center of the dado for
a bolt."
I don't have a fence for my router, so maybe I'm missing something,
but if I install a smaller bit, wouldn't my slot end up right in the
middle of the dado without any fence adjustment?
