Thank you. Practical and in METRIC. All delivered in a delightful Irish accent.👍Plus the clamping and direction tips.

Looked at four of the top hits for making a router jig. Yours is the one that stuck with me. Nicely done.
-
Very clear and concise instructions especially the additional use of line . Loved the "special clamps" - screws .

Perfect. I went to bed late last night trying to work out how to get that 'perfect' hole in the middle of my diy routing table. This was the first video that popped up. Cool idea. Thanks!

Good idea with the double sided tape. Disc spins well when caught by the cutter :)

I found you today. What a pleasure! I have a hobby wood shop here in Minnesota USA. I've watched a few of your videos and learned some very useful techniques. Thank you

I’m so glad I found your YouTube channel. You have some wonderful solutions that I’m putting in my head to use. Thanks so much for sharing this technique.

Thank you my brother across the pond. I don’t have a plunge router so I put a 1.5” nail as close to plum as I could eyeball which gave me the vertical movement. Worked like a charm. Took your advise on adding the extra lines at the start. Wouldn’t ya know I messed up the first hole. Got in on the second one though. Way better this way then trying to get a nice hole with a jig saw.

First video I watched on this topic and after watching others, this video explains it easily. Made the jig today and worked a treat, thank you.

Nice jig! Thanks Tommy. One added tip. If you use 1/2” plywood or MDF for your jig and drill a centre hole in the jig to accept a router guide bushing of 1/2”, 5/8” or 3/4”, you can then use the corresponding router guide bushing mounted on your router. Example: 3/4” guide bushing in combination with a 1/4” up spiral straight router bit. With this method your router will be able to turn as you rotate around the circle and your electrical cord doesn’t twist as you go around. For the Makita routers you will need an adapter plate to accept Porter cable style 1 3/16” OD guide bushings. You would probably be buying metric sized bushings and router bits but I think that the principle would remain the same. John Jensen from British Columbia.
