I want to route a binding channel around the edge of current Les Paul project and I decided the my Dremel seems like the best tool for the job. Its not too powerful and its a light tool which would seem to be ideal for the job. I have a base which screws onto the end of the tool and it can be adjusted up or down but I need to come up with a way of holding the cutting bit in a specific place relative to the edge of the guitar.
So it was time to get the Meccano out! I used to play with this when I was a boy and old habits die hard. I guess all that play leads the mind to be creative and be able to imagine solutions to engineering problems. It didn't take long to mock up a base to hold the router base securely in place and then the adjustable yellow wheel underneath sets the location of the cutter as it is moved around the edge of the guitar.
