Shaper/Router Jig???

Post by Tre-bia »

So here is my thinking. . .

A typical shaper has a straight fence so as to get straight cuts against the router/shaper bit... correct?

What about when I want curved cuts?

Is there a way to set up a curved fence so as to get... lets say... a sidecut radius? Or maybe a camber shaped fence to quickly rip out wood to shape without clamping to a template, then hand routing, moving the clamps, finishing routing... etc

I'm sure there are articles about it, but I am no good at searches.

Check out 333. He has a good idea on cutting out base material, although, it is not for me.

There are a few people that use sidecut jigs, can be made adjustable too.
