Overall using the templates worked out well. I found it was best to go slow especially around the corners. It took three passes with the router to do a whole the cut. Here's a few set up picts:
 |
| Headboard top edge |
 |
| Headboard window |
Here's the end results:
 |
| Finished headboard |
 |
| Ladder |
 |
| Front Wall |
Everything was going pretty well until the second to last hole to cut. Then this happened:
 |
| Router slipped off template on the first cut |
I was so bummed. I really felt like the router was riding on the template then I felt it slip back and actually hit the template. I knew I had made a big mistake. So next post will be about trying to fix this mistake....
