Making the groove for t-molding
Rhetro:
Never thought of the direction!!!! Perhaps that's what it was!!!
If looking down at the wheel (like when holding the router while in use) it spins counter clockwise, so I would cut the grove from right to left. In other words, I would be going along with the rotation of the wheel as opposed to it. Is this what you mean by "climbing"?
I think I need to practice on a blank board in the other direction to test out what you mean!
This helps. Thanks again!!

Yes if you move the router in the same direction as the bit is spinning it will climb out of the groove you are cutting. move the router in the opposite direction. Always test first to be sure. good luck!
