August 28, 20169 yr so take a block of wood say 2"x8" or so and 5/4 thick will work well... RO all edges.. this for comfort and the block will be less likely to snag raised fiber/grain and tear it loose... find yourself a XL diameter 1" (or longer if needed) FH wood screw.... polish the flat of the screw's head on VF sandpaper till the perimeter/edge of the screw's head sharpens... no wood screw??? use a machine screw, insert and lock nut... set the screw into the geometric center of the face of the 2x8.... there's nothing stopping you from inserting the screw into the 5/4 edge... adjust for depth as required to clean up those nasty ridges in the bottoms of your dadoes and rabbets... what you have done is built yourself a router plane... the real deal...Lee Valley Tools - Important Announcement
