So, I went ahead and did what everyone on here was warning me not to do. I made the set up for cutting out outlines with a router. Did my first board with the new set up, and it worked perfectly. Man… it worked good!
Next board - the router slipped on top my masonite template and it got wild. It cut a quick wobble in the outline and then a finger size indentation.
I know - I probably shouldnt have used the router for this. If I had just used a saw this would have never happened. I’m super bummed!
BUT, I really want to try and salvage the blank and finish my shape…
I was thinking I could, perhaps, glue some foam on the area and then maybe shape the rail and pretend it never happened. Is there a type of glue that would work good for this… Elmors? I want to avoid a glue that will dry to hard and make that part of the rail unshapable…
Any other recomendations out there besides just giving up and hitting the bottle? (<jk)
Any help would be greatly appreciated…
Oh, it’s a US Blank - Poly
