   Same here - would never have considered using an offset fence for this. Excellent series. Thank you

   Thanks Bob for the nice overview of router table basics.
   One comment re offset fence for avoiding snipe (Ep 3). As Bob said earlier, snipe occurs if the bit removes some of the “leading” edge of the work piece. Note, it also changes the dimensions of the work piece! With luck – and patience – an offset fence might avoid snipe for an individual setup, but this still reduces the size. Both problems can be avoided, without changing the profile of the cut, if the bit is buried deeper into the original fence until the cutter just touches the top edge of the work piece. If the shape of the bit makes this difficult to set up, place the work piece against the fence, put a second piece on top of it and push the top piece into the cutter. Move the fence until the bottom edge of the second piece just misses the router bit.
   Hope this saves a few fences!
