What happens here
Begin by securely clamping the wooden board to a stable work surface, such as sawhorses. Position the track guide precisely along the desired cutting line on the board and secure it with clamps. Attach the router to the track guide and carefully lower the router bit into the wood, then smoothly guide the router along the track to make a precise cut or groove. Observe the router bit as it removes material, creating sawdust.
Goal: Create a precise cut or groove on a wooden board
