While new baby was settled today, I cut out the new version of the vac shoe with the new router installed.

Here is a short video to give you an idea of the cutting speed:

After drilling the holes for the brush bristles, the piece looks like this:

Once the holes are done, the perimeter is cut, then the piece is flipped over to cut the centre hole.

Here is the finished piece with vac attachment installed. It fits like a glove!

Here is the bottom side. The bristles get glued in as shown.

Compare the new piece (left) to first try (right). Notice the old piece has the groove for the vac attachment cut on the wrong side (whoops).

The video doesn’t work for me, says it’s private and only for friends :-(
