I was 'in-between jobs' from Feb to May which is when I constructed the kayak and web-pages. Unfortunately I now have a job so the web-site moves down a notch in priorities...

However, several people have asked about it so I will try to get time to make more detailed instructions. For now, here is a brief description:

The concept is that you want to have your strip run through two routers to do the bead and cove at the same time. So, you will have to have one on the left side of the strip and one on the right. If you mounted both routers under your table one would be making a 'climbing' cut which is considered undesirable by router afficianados (and others who prefer not to be perforated by shooting strips).

The solution is not very profound - if you put one router above the table on the left of the strip and the other below the table on the right of the strip then they are both making the preferred cut.

I started with an existing under-table mounted router.

I added a table board with a hole cut in it for the router bit to come up through.

The first router will cut on the right side of the strip.

Then put an 8" movable fence over the bit with just enough of the bit showing to cut the bead.

Then, across from that fence, add a feather board to hold the strip against the fence. Add another feather board coming down from the top of the fence to hold the strip down.

Now for the second router.

Make a fence to go onto the left side of the strip out of a 1" x 8" x 8" piece with a hole cut for the bit to spin in. Cut slots in it for bolts to come thru and hold it to the table - the slots let you move it forward and back. The router will sit on top of this fence.

Make a router base (I did one out of scrap plexi) with outer slots that will line up with the ones you cut in the fence so that you can mount the router on top of the left fence and adjust it.

Add a feather board across from this fence. Add a little hold down (i used a scrap of spring steel) to hold the srip down right in front of the router.

Add a couple of guide blocks 6" or so in front of the first router and after the last one to guide the strips as they come in and out.

Now you just need to start running scrap pieces of strip and adjusting routers and fences up/down/left/right till you get it right and then tighten all the nuts. This takes about 10 minutes and is very frustrating for me.

Once you have it all adjusted you can feed strips thru at a pretty good rate (it took me about 45 minutes to do more than a 100 strips - would have been even faster with two people since I had to walk back and forth for each strip).
