[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 3331340, member: 7157"] Anyone ever made a router sled to bring a large slab of wood down to a uniform thickness? I’m working with this piece of black walnut, which was 1 3/8” thick at one corner and 1 3/4” thick at the opposite corner. I used 3/4” MDF to make the sled, and 2” square steel tube for the rails, and I laid the slab on a sheet of 3/4” MDF set on top of a leveled desk. The job was messy, and I need to sand down the surfaces, but the slab is now uniform in thickness all throughout. [ATTACH=full]155355[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]155356[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
