Introduction to Router Techniques

Dates: 17 – 18 July 2010
Fees: $425, GST included (non-refundable)
Prerequisite: None

This two-day workshop covers safe use of routers and selection of useful and worthwhile router bits. The focus will be on explanation and demonstration of both hand-held routing using jigs and the use of the router table. It is not required that you bring your own router but you may if you have specific questions about its adjustment and use.

If you do not already own a router it might be wise to defer the selection until after this workshop.

Students should bring their own hearing protection earmuffs if they have them. We recommend Grade 5 earmuffs. If you do not own earmuffs, we will supply them for your use while at CFW.
