NOTE: Making test cuts is essential with most routing applications. Even with careful set-ups you won't know exactly how the cut will go until you try it out. A test cut will give you a feel for the set-up, the router's speed, the depth of cut and how the cutter bit reacts to the workpiece.

Much of routing is a trial-and-error process of making various adjustments, followed by test cuts as you become familiar with all of your router's operational abilities. To avoid ruining good material, make your test cuts on scrap materials.

Placing your router onto a workpiece (starting the cut) with a fixed base depends on the type of routing you are going to produce: Edge Routing or Internal Routing
