Thanks, Micheal!

I usually try to use this tool to create routed look on a table top. My typical problems are (a) I only get it to work on one or two edges- not the entire perimeter or (. at the last corner there is a small section that that doesn't "connect".

Thanks for the assistance, I really appreciate it.

Lew,

Have you tried using Intersect to get your results. See below.

This latest piece really helps me. I was trying to do a routed edge on the front face of the shot glass case. Couldn't get it to work with 45 degree bevel joints. Think this solution might work.

 

Thanks for your help.

Thank you Michael! I was trying to make the "follow me" go around all 4 edges in one pass. I see it now.
