Dremel Router Base Jig (Inspired by Double DD)

Wow !!!!
what a wonderful base !!!!!!!!
I will be feeling bad to use it hahahaha
GR8 work Tony

Tony that's almost too pretty to be a jig but it's something I need to look at …

What would a woodworker use the Dremel for ?

Thanks Steliart,
Don't feel bad I'll take good care of it! LOL!!!

Thanks Ed,
The dremel can be use for a number of woodworking tasks. I wanted the jig to help guide my hand when signing or (carving) my name in certain projects. The bit is the same a router bit but much smaller.

Maybe Someone else will chime in with some suggestions.

That is one sweet router base!

Nice work Tony.
That looks like a great piece of equipment to have around.
It came out great looking too.

Turned out great Tony. The knobs are the focal point. If you make one for your son he can make his own sign. Haha
Looks like you got the right bit too. I received the other bits I ordered today. Some 60 degree and 90 degree carbide V bits. Haven't tried them yet but will tomorrow and I'll let you know how they work.
Have you tried yours yet?
By the way, Dave who?
Thanks for the mention, I appreciate it.

Thanks Dave Rutan,
It dose look good!

Thanks Eric!
Now I need to practice writing my name with it.

Thanks Dave…..
(double DD) that's who! LOL! I did give it a try just before I posted it here. It works just as expected. I was able to write name …Whoopee! My parents would be proud of me! LOL!
The 90 degree bit is the one you recommended. I'll wait to see what you recommended next before I buy another one. I agree about the knobs being the focal point. Don't us guys just love things with knobs? hahaha!

I just spent 30$ to buy new one for my Proxxon,but this one looks so beautiful, besides functionality.

Pretty nice and a wonderful accessory for the dremel .
I like the visibility that the base allows and the knobs are just beautiful too.

It's on my list Tony and Dave but I am waiting for my New 3 hp dust collector. And now I have to run some new wiring for the big bear beastie.

Well Tony, you and Dave have just added another must have jig to my growing list. Nicely done.

I could really use this. Years ago I bought a plastic version but it was cheaply made and didn't hold up. Nice work.

Very nice. Looks well made.

Wow Tony, that sure is pretty.
Makes my daggy plastic one look real cruddy.
Great job mate.

Bob

Not only functional, pretty too.

Thanks for the simple ideas. I have been trying to design a base for my roto zip to be a trim router. I have the collets and need the sturdy base I think you have the desgn and I can start. Please see my post and blog for small shop and builds from some scrap wood buys.

Very awesome Tony.

You got me thinking I need to scribe rather than use templates! Nice work

Looks good Tony, well done!

Thank you Ivan,
Is that 30 in US currency? The only thing I had to buy is the hardware, About $7 US

Thanks Klaus!
Functional is a good thing but good looking knobs makes even better! I didn't have a way to Knurl the knobs like Dave did on his but it work ok.

Thanks Tom,
I added the measurements in my description if you need them. 3 HP Vac! Nice!

Thanks Lee,
It never stops! The site is like a candy store! You want it all. I just hope we all out live our list!

Thanks Rick,
I have that cheap plastic one also… Not work a darn!

Thanks Art,
It is sturdy, I tested it and it's just what the doctor ordered!

Thanks Bob,
Nothing beats hand made! This design work well and looks good too! I give credit to Dave and Paul (shipwright) that help him with his and got me here.

Thanks Doug,
I think if it's pretty it helps you look good!

Thanks Oldguy2,
Glad this helps you! I went to your blog.. Holy Molly! All that wood for $15. Nice!

Thanks Roger,
I can't tell you how many times I could have used this jig.

Thanks Petey,
What ever way get the job done it the right way!

Thanks Dan,
It's an easy one to dope out with just a few measurements.
