In Response To: Strip: trouble with b&c routing (Pascal, in Chile)

: Hi Pascal,

I would not recommend pulling the bit out of the chuck, It's not only dangerous but it can cause damage to the chuck. I know this first hand from an old router I own. What happened was the bit got dislodged just enough to make the chuck egg shaped. It's now worthless. Good thing it was an old piece of junk router I sure wounldn't do it on my new one.

You might want to consider using rolling bevel but joints and forget the cove and bead. I no longer use cove and bead and in my opinion the final outcome is much tighter looking joints. I found that with cove and bead I ended up planing off the edge of the cove during fairing which makes the joint show much more.

I also found It took the same time to build as when I used cove and bead. The extra time it takes to mill strips is spent planing butt joints instead so it all works out.
