low end fuzz Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 is there anything in the way of template bearings or anything for dremel so i could inlay the same way i do my routing? i cant find anything on their site, but it would seem silly that they wouldnt have something like that; they try to have everyhting else!

Southpa Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 (edited) Heres a little set I picked up a while ago. I haven't used them yet and they are pretty basic, ie. no bearings, 1/8" shaft. I don't have a plunge base for my dremel but DO have the little router table accessory, haven't used that yet either, . The shaft on some of them continues past the bit section which will act as an end bearing, should be ideal for routing binding channels etc. Anyway, I bought the set at a place called "House of Tools" for around $30 Cdn.

low end fuzz Posted October 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 thats getting close to what i need; im working out a way to cut an f hole out; i want to have the bottom tail taper down to nothing, so none of my regular router bits would go small enough and routing freehand is never an option i entertain. but if those are out there for edges, im sure i could find a rabbett type one that i could change the beaings on to make it a flush bit. thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegarehanman Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 (edited) Why not just cut the f-hole with a coping saw and clean it up with a bit of sandpaper. You should be able to get good results in just as much, if not less time than it would take to make a template and route it. Plus, a taper to zero would be simple. peace, russ Edited October 30, 2006 by thegarehanman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
low end fuzz Posted October 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 ya, im prolly gonna drill 2 holes; one as big as i want my top 'loop' to be and a really small noe at the end of the taper and cut it out on the scroll saw and clean it up with knives or sandpaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
