Router tuneup

[Tom Bender]

Am building an end table to warm up for a few pieces for the living room. Just working out some details and techniques. My router bit slipped in the collet and went deep. Time for a Dutchman! Cleaned up the collet and bit and other parts. Now it's ready to go. Still have to sharpen everything and work on design details.

Tom, keep careful eye on your collet. They do wear out and need to be replaced from time to time and slipping is an indication that it needs to be considered. Dropping them can also be detrimental.
