Description of π§ Yonico Banding Router V Design: Enhance Precision and Efficiency in Woodworking
Add a solid wood edge banding to plywood shelves and surfaces. Premium C3 micro-grain tungsten carbide blades for a sharper & longer lasting edge. For use on table mount router only. Silver induction brazing for maximum strength and durability.
This great set. I recently used it to edge some melamine shelves with hardwood red oak. I completely redid the shelves for his and her master closet and they still look and function like new. Accuracy was good and setup was fairly easy and reproducible after a few test cuts and a pattern I reserved after dialing it in.
Pros
Add solid wood edging to plywood shelves and surfaces
Perfectly cuts pine and hardwood edges with a V-shaped internal drill. Cut the plywood without burning it with an external V-burr but left a slightly rough edge that needed sanding so the seam line was visible after painting. I haven't tried it on hardwood plywood or baltic birch so it will probably work better than pine plywood. It looks like it's good on board. The parts are perfectly matched and well glued. Next time, though, try a vertical edger on pine veneer plywood to get a sharper edgeβ¦
Pros
Fine-grain C3 premium tungsten carbide blades for a sharper, more durable edge
There are many ways to edge plywood but I thought it would be potentially very cool and it is. The problem is that it's very difficult to adjust the settings so that the two pieces line up perfectly unless you have a very sophisticated router jack that can be micro-stepped (you'll probably want to use spring boards as well) . I've done a few things and after all the work I've found that there are easier ways to do it with good results. For me it was just a bit overkill. Decent quality bitsβ¦
