Router Templating || A Thorough Introduction

Router Templates dramatically increase the range of your possible woodworking projects. In this guide I cover how to attach them to your material, what goes into the selection of router bits, and how to make the cuts on both a router table and handheld routers. All of this while I make a fun game of Mancala. If you enjoyed this video, please like and subscribe.
