Wasn't too bad.  Had to take it really slow and not push the blade too hard.  It routes pretty easy though.  The maple's not too hard to work with, but the glue they use to make the laminations is pretty tough.  Plus there's a lot of sugar in the wood, so there was a lot of smoke.  Overall, I'm really happy with it.  It creates a really rugged surface to work with.  I had to predrill all my screws, otherwise the screw would make it about 3/4" in before snapping.

How hard was it working with the maple top? I have 2 similar ones in my garage and am looking for ideas to take advantage of theml. Really like what you did with your's!

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.

First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
