Your use of the saw blade to show which direction the work and the router should go is the best explanation I've seen yet. Thanks for that.

[seamus]

The dado tip is unbelievably simple! I'm going to put it to use tomorrow morning. Thanks!

[tsolerman]

You are a great teacher and a great talent on communicating things. Thank you so much for being here

OH. MY. GOD. Colin! You are literallythe answer to my prayers. Im trying to cut a dado into some timber and I keep stuffing it up! Your tip on using the two guides to mark it is just the answer Ive been looking for!

[timsharr]

I learned so much from this short clip !!! The visual using the tablesaw blade was VERY helpful. Thanks!

[johnvodopija]

I really enjoy coming back to these tips and tricks videos. Thank you. 👍😎🇦🇺

[peterfenwick]

Colin, Just a word of thanks. Really appreciate your videos as they are presented in such a relaxed way and are highly informative. It's you and another couple of guys on YT that have been a great source of knowledge and "givers of confidence".

[russhamel]

Another like - no, make that LOVE - for the drill bit tip. Face-palm simple. Thanks Colin!

[watchman]

first time someone answer me that: yes, you can use the router fence just like the table saw fence! Thank you man, you're great at woodworking and teaching!

[evarogers]

Exactly what I was looking for. This is my first router (and table). One huge reason for this purchase was to put a nice edge on my boards since many of my projects require jointing for panels. Your instructions & demo gave me a clear picture of the process. It might be pretty basic for many woodworkers but I am a self taught relative newbie gaining all my knowledge from YouTube videos like yours. Thanks for sharing your experience!

[mrtonman]

Thanks for the great tips. I'm an old amateur woodworker. I know a lot about woodworking but you always come up with some great tips. Thank you.

I'm new to woodworking and I am so glad you post these videos. I'm learning so much from you and having lots of fun doing this woodwork...I just made my first workbench, thanks to your instructions and tips all during the building process.

[kodiak]

Greets and Thanks from Russia! It's a pleasure to watch your every video. Woodworking is cool and you help to make it easier and get more fun of it! Thank you for your efforts!

[donedwards]

Good to see your tips! I will never approach your level of skills. These type of ideas are a big help to mediocre folks like me..Keep up the good work!

[ReferenceFidelityComponents]

Great vid and great tips. You're helping a cabinet maker on the other side of the pond who has only relatively recently started using routers and making the understanding of the jobs so much easier than figuring things out by experience. I thank you for that and will humbly follow your other router tips.

[UCJ]

I’ve been trying to replicate your method of straightening the edge of the board, but both of the edges are not straight ..., you dado method worked like a charm. Thank you for your instructive guidance. This is my first time ever using a router.

[sammathis]

That drill bit trick for setting depth is genius.

[floydc]

I can't believe how simple the dado tip works. Thanks

[kirkwilliams]

Mr Colin I like the way you had set the depth of the Router
