My serpentine drawer project is moving (very) slowly, having been interrupted by all life's normal stuff for old people along with spring yard duties. The latest slowdown was looking for a router bit to cut an odd double bead on the edge of the dust frames. I couldn't find exactly what I needed, but came up with one that might do it if combined with a roundover bit I already had. It arrived yesterday. So I'm setting up to do some tests to see how the edge works and out of the blue my router in the table won't run. After 90 minutes or so of screwing around with it I got it to start, but the speed was pulsing. So I've ordered a replacement speed control hoping that's the problem and a set of brushes that I might as well replace while it's apart. But that will probably take another week or so to get here so once again I'm delayed. Add to that I'm not sure that's the problem, so who knows if this will ever get finished.

Frustrating for sure. Hope the router is an "easy" fix.

have you considered a series of pulleys and a bicycle? better eat your wheaties.
