American Craftsmanship ~ Amish Routing

DUTCHCREEK

The first step in beginning the routing process is to identify the style of furniture that you are building so that you are able to select the correct router bit to use. In order to cut large edge furniture profiles, the router must be operated at a very high speed, so it is very important that the router bit is securely fastened before starting this process. In order to achieve the highest quality products, Amish routing is not done at full depth in one pass. It requires multiple passes to ensure the best precision of each piece. After the furniture profile has been cut clean, the edge is then hand sanded before staining and finishing it to complete the process.
