I have a client who wants me to rout out the back of a foil covered door ( remove a rectangle and rabbett) so each can accept glass.
Its MDF core and there white doors.
Will the Foil chip or tear?
The back of the door is flat completely. I was thinking of setting up my straightedge jig for plunge router and rout it out through the back? Where I have to come through on the front though is a small bevel , so bit will be eating through some area on one side thats thin and one side thats almost 3/4.
Other ways I thought of are dropping it down on a table saw and cutting most of line(s) that way and finish with jig saw. Another way of just using a jig saw with straightedge.
Thanks for taking a look.
