When I travel to Germany to visit all of the inlaws and outlaws with my wife, i also do not understand much of the language. i have found that i can understand a little of conversations by picking out one person in the crowd who seems to be a little clearer, or slower, speaking. Once i zero in on that one person, the whole conversation becomes much clearer. i think Guido would be that one person in any crowd. i have watched several other of his videos and I have yet to be at a loss to understand what he is explaining. so clear and so precise.

I tried the "extension table" sold for the 1010 and didn't think it worked well. This home-made version is as useful for me as it is humble. (And like everything I make, it's very, very humble--the blue tape is a shim.) Anyone who likes the idea would have plenty of room to improve on the looks and function.

Yeah, but once I figured out that the stop block works just fine without the plate underneath, I've had no use for the offset base.

Hey James, Thanks for the GREAT HEADS UP. I am making a matching cutting board and and serving tray (Christmas present for son & DIL >>> I'm way ahead of schedule this year. Usually i get these sort of things delivered sometime before next Christmas. The tray has already been delivered. Oh! WAY ahead :
). I had to do a lot of edge rounding where that foot on the side of my OF 1000 was not deep enough. I did struggle with keeping level, finally with the tray, I clamped wood scraps for the foot to rest on while moving router along the edge. Yesterday, i was already to set up when I decided to come up for a cup of tea while i thought about how best to do the edge. While waiting for the tea to cool down, i checked in with FOG and came across your post. I had never noticed that guide was level with the router base. WOW! The edge round-over went so much quicker.
I had already decided to use Guido's trick for some other bowl/tray projects coming up (more Christmas 2011). My how to file just got a little bigger. Thanks
