Скачать или смотреть How to Flatten a Wood Slab on your Workbench with a Router

I go through all the steps of how I flatten a slab right on my workbench using a router. I have also written a article about this with all the details on my blog: https://www.jack-bench.com/blog/

I am going to make a coffee table out of a thick walnut slab. The first thing I need to do is to flatten the slab. In this video I show how I made the railing and the router sled that I used. I also show how I installed a great dust collection port on the back of the sled.

I am going to make a carved textured base for the coffee table. What I am really excited about is the finish because I plan to add a bronze finish to the texture. I have been experimenting with real bronze powder and various different paints. I am going to fill the crack in the slab with some kind of a bronze, too!

I will make a series of YouTube videos about this build including carving the base and developing the bronze finish. I will also need to do some pattern cutting on the bandsaw and I will make a video on that, too.

I already knew most of what I needed for this, but I got the idea to use a climb cut while flattening the slab from and Instagram post by BJMacWoodwork. https://www.instagram.com/bjmacwoodwo...
