Creating a self aligning glue joint using this Amana Tool 80 degree V Joint bit on the router table. The bit did a fantastic job cutting this making it a nearly seamless joint. This joint provides additional glue area strengthening the joint and is especially useful when making raised panels as the glue seam is much less noticeable when joined like this.

Using this giant 2-3/8" diameter bit to route a large chamfer on the bottom of this snowflake tray! The cut was all done in a single pass and the bit left a buttery smooth finish!

The most important thing about making a tray like this with an engraved bottom, is to set your z-zero position from the same place with all tools. Then, when you set up your v-carve toolpath, set your start depth to the final depth you cut into the the tray. This ensures the v-bit carves the design correctly and will not contact the sides of the tray while doing rapid movements. The bottom of the snowflake catch all tray is now carved in and cut perfectly smooth!

Mistakes happen, it's how you fix them that matters! The mistake I made here was in how I oriented the grain of the wood, I put the most likely part to chip out of the handle on straight grain rounding a corner. The chipout was inevitable and I should have oriented it differently on the piece. I save all of my offcuts from a project until the project is done and was able to find a perfect match so that you really can't even tell there was ever a mistake.

If you've tried to put a full 3/4" dado stack on your SawStop Table Saw, you know the problem, there's not enough shaft to install both the arbor washer and the arbor nut.  Leaving the washer off could provide uneven compression that could distort the blade and compromise cut quality.  Dado Nut merges the arbor washer and arbor nut into one integrated unit. The threads extend almost completely through the arbor washer and the nut is retained within the washer.  This may fit some other saws, in addition to SawStop, that utilize a 5/8"-12 tpi right-hand Acme threaded arbor.
