Default Re: Foamy Season is here - Milling Depron Foam -> A How To

One more note about drawing in the 'structure' - Don't forget the offset between the outer edge of the router bit and the outer edge of the guide tube in your router base. Forgetting it will mean that you won't cut out as much material as you thought.

Now that everything is drawn in, its time to cut out the holes. I use a fresh #11 blade and a steel straight edge to make this go fairly fast. Do this right, because sloppy work here will result in a sloppy looking routing job.

Not much more to say on this step, just get cuttin!
