Flush trimming hardwood edging
#16
Easy enough with a lipping base and flush cutting bit. Can flush wood 4-5" wide.

   
   

I don't like running a bearing guided bit against thin veneer. It leaves a track.

Interesting.

Can you explain a bit? Google gives me a specific tool (edge lipping planer) but it's not clear what specific type of router base is needed or the method used.

If you look really closely at Stwood's picture under the handle and just to the left of the cord (it is kind of hidden in the shadow) you can see that the special base plate is thinner over the router bit (there is a step up).  Set the bit so that the depth matches the thick part of the base exactly.  Then it is just a matter of shaving off the high points of the edging by resting the thick part of the base on the part you want to match and hovering the thin part of the base over the edging.

Described exact.

I had Pat Warner make this base for me. Custom made.
Pat is now deceased (Rip Pat), and I don't know if anyone took over his business of making router accessories.
