The importance of rebating drivers

[VantheMan]

Thanks Paul,
Fortunately I have a rather strange electric drill accessory which is basically for cutting out rather large round holes for installing lights in plasterboard ceilings - it is much larger than any tank cutter I have ever seen and has two rather lethal looking adjustable blades inside a transparent plastic drum which collects all the dust etc. If you start at low revs it can easily deal with 5mm mdf and will cut perfect circles of up to over 200mm diameter.

I bought myself a 'Jasper jig' Model 200 several years ago, importing it from Bill Jasper in the States (Houston, Texas). Googling it seems to show that other companies sell it now. As its designed for the USA then its imperial measurement, but it gets damn close & the results are excellent. I ended up buying a Hitachi router to go with it as the jig only fits a (large) selection of routers.

Last year I added the Model 400 (for those small circles). Bought this from a British web-based company, but cant remember who.

Hi,

Just had a quick read of that site, can anyone tell me what the hell a 'lazy suzan' is?

[Shian7]

Ah!...never mind. Apparently it's a 'Pu Pu Platter'

You could always bond two sheets of ply (or other) together. Cut a hole in the front piece (having a thickness equal the depth of drive unit chassi) with a jig saw and then cut a smaller hole in the back piece. You could even experiment with ashesives as some could be a useful source of damping. I would recommend cutting the ply to shape after making the holes as they may not be so easy to align perfectly. Hope this makes sense.

That's exactly what I've always done! Jolly side cheaper and just as good as a router
