This sled will allow spline
joints to be made for both 1/4 inch straight splines or for
dovetail spline joints.
|
|
| I wanted the sled to
work on the P66 and at the router table. I want to make joints with straight spline keys...this would be with Infinity .25 inch blade at P-66 |
 |
| Spline joints can also use
dovetail keys, so it must be able to work at the router table. |
 |
|
I looked around the Internet for some ideas...Eagle America had this model. AT $120, nothing here that would make me not build unit in the shop. |
 |
| Woodsmith.com had a nice model online
explained well... but I prefer a sled and I also want it to work well on router table. |
 |
| Wood Magazine had an interesting model that rides over the fence...still wanting a unit that works on the router table. |  |
| Sketchup warehouse had a model
that would work for my purposes... the full model was not downloadable to my free Sketchup 17. Used this model for some ideas. |
 |
| Kings Fine Woodworking had a
pretty good video of the building of the unit shown here.
At YouTube.com This design would meet my needs. |
 |
| Kings Fine
Woodworking has
plans
on their website. Image is Sketchup of the project. |
 |
| I opted to merge some of the
design features and produced the Sketchup shown here. This view is from the back, the side that is pushed. |
 |
| This view is from the front. There is a 5/8 inch slot at the left side...this will be for dovetail cuts. The .25 slot on the left is for straight spline cuts on the P-66 |
 |
|
This is the underside of the sled...the T-slot bar will be 5 7/16 from the edge of the Infinity .25 slot which is cut on the P-66. The T-slot bar will be 5 7/16 from the edge of a 5/8 inch slot. This slot will accommodate a variety of dovetail bits at the router table.  |
