I need to "rip" some 3" high baseboard down by about 1/4". This is
your basic home-center baseboard.

I don't have a portable table saw, but I do have a router table with 2
fences. I figure I can run the baseboard along a straight bit and
remove the ~1/4".


Academic: I'd take 3, ~3/64/pass
Cutter: Straight, at least 3/4 x 3/4 w/1/2 shank.
Practical/safety: High risk, the work may self feed, break the cutter
or kick back. I'd saw the stuff.
Safety?? See http://patwarner.com/safety.html

AMEN! DerbyDad, please read the above page, and pay particular attention to
the last bullet point, "Full thickness router table cuts".
