This is by far the best explained video on complementary router joining period. It is very simple to understand and to the point. I couldn’t find any others that are better.
In answer to those wondering about the oversize pilot bearing: The difference in diameter between the 1/2" bit and the 1" pilot bearing accounts for the kerf of the 1/4" flush trim bit. If you used a 1/2" flush trim bit, there would be a slight mismatch, producing an imperfect fit. Sandor mentions that during the demo at the 3:20 mark, but doesn't emphasize the importance.
Great method, but why did you change to the bit with the over-sized bearing instead of just using the same flush trim bit you used on part A? Also, where did you get that tape dispenser? I can see myself using it a LOT once the workshop is up and running again.
My thoughts exactly, in combination with a severe haircut. If he had attached a cleat underneath and on top of the template perpendicular to the template's edge it would have taken only one step and one bit.
This is why i dropped my magazine subscription. All these questions about the same thing i question,why change template bits. you dont change if it's a straight panel,i tried on curves with same bit,glue up went fine. I have asked countless questions this year,only one answered was about my subscription renewal. imagine that,all about money. hello popular woodworking here i come
James G. No he did not. Spell is a verb with a regular and irregular form. "Spelt" is the accepted way of spelling outside the US. But why comment on spelling in the first place. Sad

Couldn't you simply use a single flush-cut router bit and avoid the confusion?
That is tooooo AWESOME!!! I always wondered how they got that done, now I know!
Why not same template flush trim bit? Why a larger bearing?

what is the make of the 1/4" flush bit
For routing the workpieces, could you use a 1/4 inch flush trim bit and then a 1/4 inch bit with a 3/4 inch OD bearing?
Kris W. Yes also possible combination. Just to rout the width of the kerf on the opposite side. So that lines will be exact.
thank you...
Why not use the same template router bit for both cuts ?

What do you do for hard angles? Get out the chisel and hope you don't screw up?

It's spelt "ComplEmentary" meaning it "completes" rather thatn praises

Joseph is right. Although, we will take any compliments on our template routing system. Thank you for the correction!
