hi colin
just wanted to say thanks for this video. i am renovating windows in my house which are rotten and realised i needed to shape a lot of fillets. on the basis of your really clear advice i built myself a router table and have been able to mould suitable sections to bring the windows back to life (at least for a year or two!) thanks for your clear and uncomplicated expertise.

Hats off for doing the safety tips at the beginning. They are all common sense, but reminders keep us from making mistakes. Thanks.

I had tried before to use my router table. Well, it is a little table with a hand router mounted to it. But I had been continually frustrated until I watched this video. Though the mechanics of the setup are different for my little table, your explanation was more than enough to get me looking around to discover how my situation worked. My first trial piece was a total success. Thanks so much for this video, and all the others I am sure I will be watching to learn how Caley Ann

Thanks Colin! I've used push blocks but never paid attention to squareness. I'm sure they were square since they sat flush with the fence and the square workpiece, but now I'll be methodical about it and mark the square edges. Never know when you're in a hurry and might grab a piece for a push block and think it's good enough! I try never to hurry, but that's an aspiration, not necessarily a reality.
