When I try to chew through that much material in one pass the dogs howl at the high pitched whine and I can smell the smoke. --- End quote --- i will find out exactly what model the router is tomorrow when i go to visit him. as far as smelling smoke check the bearing they burn up rather fast. they are cheap to replace and take about 30 sec. to change. i went through one when i cut out my gt cabinet. it smelled like smoke and didn't seem to cut very well, as soon as i changed the bearing it worked great again. dirt |

I still think the circular saw/Jigsaw method is best. I clamped the 2 sheets of MDF together and cut both sides at once. It took about 20 minutes to cut both sides. If I did use the router method I would not attempt to cut all 3/4"or 5/8"in one pass! If you do borrow a friends router and bits ;) Slug54 |

Your router / flush cut bit idea is a good one - but the Router and the Flush cut bit may not last very long. Also it will be really, really messy! |

A flush trim bit is what you want. As for it not lasting very long it'll last long enough. Even if you go though a couple of them you saved a lot of time measureing/cutting. |
