Title: Quick and Dirty Router Sled
Post by: RussellT on May 14, 2026, 11:44:32 AM: Hi Everyone

I know we all come up with some weird ways of doing jobs, so I thought I'd share this one with you. I needed a bit of wood and I had some old palette boards but they were too thick. I tried a couple of things - the band saw wanted to burn its way through, a hand plane was tedious (and in my hands not very accurate) so I thought about using a router. The internet showed me lots of fancy designs, but this is what I came up with.

Accuracy could have been improved but the belt sander took care of it and here's the result.
