Andy

I recently purchased your router sled & installed it on my festool multifunction table top. The installation was easy & the router sled assembly complements the table top & its various dog holes Your sled can be removed by just removing two of the end caps & removing the cross sled which holds the router in minutes . It reinstalls just as easy & once the slab or cutting board is secured the leveling sled is good to go. The movement from side to side forward & return moves with ease & little to ...

Peter W.

Hello Shawn I actually ordered the "Two Pocket Dog Bone Tray Acrylic Router Template" from you as a template for a bowl for peanuts, but before I could implement this idea, our beloved dog died very suddenly at just 7 years old. What can I say, the peanut shell then became the final home for the ashes of my loyal comrade. Thank you for your wonderful videos and explanations, which helped me a lot as an absolute woodworking beginner. Greetings from Bad Driburg, Germany PW

Absolutely the best router sled out there! Extremely durable, well thought out/designed and reasonably priced for the average woodworker. Love to see a scaled up version that can go more than 4ft wide. Beefed mine up temporarily to flatten my kitchen table (4.5 x 9.5ft), be nice to purchase that option. Extremely satisfied and recommend to anyone looking for one

I have had my sled for nearly a year now. It has allowed me create larger items. Things I would not have accepted in the past are now easy to accommodate in my tiny shop. My only observation, and it is anecdotal, is there seems to be a constant miniscule slant to the cut. Uniform with every pass. Makes me believe there is some unavoidable flexibility in the rails, or user pressure is allowed to create varying movement of the router on the rails. Increases sanding requirements for me, but not en...

Set up and running. Great tool!!! My shop is so small I had to build a movable table top to mount the slide on because it will need to hang on the wall when not in use, but it works great!

In my case a few 2x4 ripped down to about 2-1/2" [to use as spacers]. I am going to tinker a bit more and be sure everything is solid before cutting.

I absolutely love this mold. I love every single mold I have ever purchased from this company. It’s a big company with the customer service and feel of a small hometown business. Best molds available. Durable. Backed by the company. The fastest shipping.

What’s not to love. I view molds as a canvas -and I so love making magic with them. Whether pouring with the design facing down or up, the end result is magic. Is there anything more satisfying than popping a finished piece out -and doing a shoulder shimmy dance of satisfaction?

Timothy W.

I am a Texan and when I saw this LARGE mold, I needed to acquire it. I love the wildflowers native to Texas. I dried out some of the native flowers and had to combine with this mold. This mold is HUGE and requires a lot of resin, but the result!!! I love how mine turned out. The mold is 16 inches x 16 inches and an inch deep. It has a glossy finish. I highly recommend it.

My son received an 18" Viking battle axe as a gift, and they didn't like any of the display stands that were available on line. All the wood is stabilized Cherry burl from the same live edge chunk. Each side is butterflied, so there is a flow to the grain pattern. Magic Resin deep pour was used with Forest and Pine green mica pigments, then a clear coat was used to level it out. Copper wire was used as accents

I was making my first from scratch guitar. This tool enabled me to not only get the thickness correct, but do it from opposing finish concepts. I would have had to have a several thousands dollar planer to do this. I loved how it was ready for finish sanding and exact thickness on each surface. I love this tool

Amazing sled. I shopped long and hard, watched so many videos. Kept coming back to this one. I really don't have a single complaint. Finding the right length bit/collet extension was a problem. I can't use my Bosh like I had wanted. I have to use my smaller Porter Cable. I build custom guitars, and work with 8/4 lumber for the bodies, and ifcI need a cap, it's bookmarked 4/4 I can do all this with ease. This sled is so versatile. I absolutely love it. I need to trim the crossbars back to the len...

It is a beautiful piece of shop equipment. However, the only time it was used, I did not understand hold down methods, and my project was gouged. It was quickly replaced by my CNC machine. Sadly, the beautiful sled is now storage for unsurfaced wood. Still love your molds.

Very, very well put together kit. Smooth as silk operation, but FOLLOW THE VIDEO SET UP DIRECTIONS! This is a relatively precision piece of equipment, but if you are at the point in your career where you use one of these, chances are you can build an accurate table mounting system. Paired with a Bosch 1617EVS and Shawn's recommended bit and extension, it chewed through a few ash cookies with no chatter or deflection. I got the 70"x40" kit and left my table open ended, so my capabilities ar...

The sled was easy to setup and operate. I flattened two separate pieces of red oak then glued them together to get the book matched effect. The top was for a coffee table. I would strongly recommend getting the dust shield. I hooked it up to my shopvac and there was very little dust or chips in my shop. I have more projects to do and I'm looking forward to using the sled again.
