This is genius, subscribed because of this video

You, Sir, are THE CHAMP, THE BOSS, THE MAN WITH THE PLAN! This is truly an outstanding sled, and your presentation skills are masterful!

One of the coolest sled designs I've seen to date - definitely going to build one of these, thank you!

Agreed, I'm building one this memorial day weekend, exept with more holes for finer adjustments and a pin that slides in and out for quick adjustments. Thanks for the idea @DIY Creators

I like the videos with no cursing and no four letter words. You are a pure gentleman. Thanks a lot. Houston, TX.

I miss KZread videos like that f%^@

Excellent video. No wasted time, all business. Nice finished product. Nice work area. Good job!

There are jigs, and there are JIGS. This is an amazing tool, thanks for showing it to us. Well done!

Glen, I so appreciate the quality and content of your videos over the years. You've definitely helped me up my DIY game! This sled, by the way, is AWESOME!

PURE SKILL AND INNOVATION! 👌

it's amazing the way you run 👍

I made myself one but now that I've seen yours, I think I'm going to make one like yours. So much more efficient.. Excellent!

The best channel for far!!!!

Those threaded inserts are nuts 😂

And now you need to make a router duplicate attachment. 🙂 Thanks for another great video. 👍

I've been viewing all of the flattening mill videos out there. I really like your design. Nice work. LOL love the "stylish" comment

I like your sled design. Not a lot of money to make and looks like it works fine. Nice job on your videos.

Best router sled design I've seen, and I have been researching. Perfect for my small projects but I can scale up.

Seriously, that’s the best design I’ve seen around. Your a genius. Just awesome.

yes, i totally agreed with you bro...our guys really a genius one

Great job. I appreciate how you don’t edit out your mistakes, but instead embrace them and show how you correct them. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next!

Damm nice man. Good job 👏🏼

Very nice design. It has given me some ideas, thank you.

This is awesome , thank you always I’m Learning from you always .

I went down this path when I was going to be thicknessing slabs for guitar bodies. This is a REALLY good approach, easily scaleable. One warning though: make sure the planer bit you buy for milling is designed for the application, specifically RPM. 15 years ago there was a bit with 3 individual replaceable blades that was designed for drill press RPM ranges (discontinued now). There were a number of cases in the DIY luthier community of people using it with their 1/2" routers and the bit would fly apart under high RPM and cause injury. If in doubt, go for a smaller diameter bit designed for purpose and use more passes. Love what you did here brother, excellent build.

WOW! Outstanding call out! This closed system seems like would offer some protection from the catastrophic failure of a bit. I am wondering if some good leathers, for welding, will help as safety gear I use for this type of wood working. I will pay attention to the RPMs to avoid wrecking my day. Thanks again.

This warning got me thinking I don't remember the rpm of my tools. I am going through my manuals to revisit rpm of my tools to prevent a "day wrecking" event. Awesome call out 👍

Always check the rpm for a bit. The larger the bit the more danger there is.

Broken bits can happen any time. Heavy PVC (e.g. curtain side truck body material) can be used over the job each side of the sled. These will catch flying debris and will reduce dust. You could also cover the gaps between the sled rails, but it's going to be a pain to use. In any case, the narrow gap is unlikely to let high speed shrapnel exit the table.

These videos are not just productive and creative I find them really therapeutic as well 😌

I so enjoy your practical projects. Sure, the CNC videos are interesting, but I'll never have one (and I suspect most other woodworkers). So projects which I can relate to are the ones I like best. Your workmanship and explanations are tops.

You are the best bro!!! 💪🏻💪🏻 thanks for the videos.

Best sled I’ve seen so far. Great job!

This is great, I found my next project! Thanks man!

Amazing DIY Project. I enjoyed watching this. Greets from Germany

Best one I’ve seen thus far.

Portable Drill Guide! Awesome! I am getting that tool from Rockler. I thought the drill guide was overkill but after you showing how practical it's function is, I am impressed. The track for the gantry, the gantry and the router base is awesome! I am going to reference this post for my next router sled. The information you are sharing is GREAT! You are the man! Thank you!

I picked up the Portable Drill Guide from Rockler. I saw this post, did some research by checking out reviews of drill guides and decided on Rockler's. I started using it on my current project, instead of free hand drilling and when I was done, I was happy with the results. The PDG is expensive but the benefit in the higher level of quality of my projects will improve and pay for itself. I appreciate this this post.

Dude, you're a genius! Great channel!

Very nice. My jig kept snagging up on the wood sled. This makes it much easier to flatten a piece

you have golden hands man!!!

good job, brother joiner! Hello from Russia!

i've seen MANY Flattening jigs on here, but this is the first one that looks easy to build and use. You've outdone yourself on this one!!!!

Nicely done. Great design.

Great sled. And thanks for showing how to build it without welding.

Nice!!!! Fully functional and doesn't take a lot of space, definitely going to build something like this.

Great video! Smart design and very well explained!

Congratulations. Very useful jig and easy to make. I’ll copy it.

This is a clever sled design with readily available parts. Well done!

First time viewer of your channel and you have just solved problem that I have been pondering for awhile. I will have to make some mods to your plan, but I finally have a plan to work with. Thank you a bunch!!! One of the coolest things about KZread is that I have access to people that are smarter than me.

Great job. Congratulations. 💚💛🇧🇷

Very nice and easy build. Greetings from Germany!

Glen this is brilliant!! Thanks so much for sharing this.

Saved this to make my own when plans are available

Nice and straightforward. Thanks

Thank you bro.greetings from Turkiye

Thanks you saved me spending money on a thickness planer we would not use often enough to justify purchasing one. We adopted your idea slightly different but worked brilliantly for our specific task.

This is awesome!!!!

Love your designs, practical content, and diy approach for the true DIYers out here! You are an inspiration to me as a maker! Thank you

I've seen a lot of these. You have one of the simplest and nicest. I appreciate you walking through the build and explaining your thought process

I appreciate the good design, and the video without boring repetitions. Thanks.

Dude. That is really good work.

Man, this is a slick design. Looks like it slides like butter

This device is why I subscribe to your channel. I am going to make one as soon as the plans are out

I see you using a Blackwing for your marks. A person of skill AND taste!

Another OUTSTANDING VIDEO!

Great design. I’m really diggin it. My next project.

Great camera work. The steps are clearly shown and the narration is to the point and easy to understand.

Definitely love this design! I downloaded and built your Portable Router Table yesterday and it works so perfectly. I changed the dimensions a bit to meet those of the Ryobi router I bought yesterday as well. I’m definitely going to build and add this to my arsenal soon. Thanks for creating this with a no-weld design to make it possible for those without a welder or welding skills to still be able to achieve this build. Love your channel bro!

Dang! You have a lot of Rockler stuff! Nice...

Your ingenuity and craftsmanship are top notch!!!!

Nicely done, and well presented.

Very nice design. I like your height adjustment

Wonderful! And yes the dust it's a problem

Oh man, I was looking at routers today & then you drop this, which is exactly what I need for the project I have in mind. Better go back & get one & learn how to use it.

GREAT project Glenn. Your projects always have an extra feature or two that sets them apart from most others! !! !!!

Good concept. Nicely done. Best of luck. Have fun, stay safe. Good video.

I love your tools bro,I only see quality, good job!

One of the better designs of a router flattening jig. Great job!

Very proud of you young Brother. Great role model.

Always enjoy ur videos. Plus I learned a very cool way 2 use ur track clamps for braces. Upside down. So simple yet genius.

Genius I wish I could plug your skills into my body!!lol

Perfect solution for guitar body planing... I'm definitely building this... Thanks brother !

Great design Dude, you are an inspiration
