Hi all, I finally received my routing bits yesterday and was so excited to try them out. My first "routed" project didn't at all turn out. What did I do wrong? I used the 1/4 inch round over bit. I will include the project so you can see all of the settings.
My main concerns:
Why did it do a double pass on the right end of the piece?
Why didn't it even "round over" the end cuts?
Doesn't the rout function finish the edges of a piece not just cut a groove?
Plus, how can I eliminate the squares surrounding the balls? Or at least "stack" the lettering on top of them better?
Thanks in advance, Princess Sawdust
