Suggest next time, do the pocket cuts first with a flat bottom bit. Take a few passes to you get to depth. Then do your inside cut with a .001 offset. Then your final cut with no offset. I think you will find you have little or no sanding.

Thanks for the tip Brian! If I make another one I'll try that for sure. Thanks for watching!

If you take some finishing passes you can remove a lot of the heavy sanding. So your final pass being .01 or .005 of you have it set to inches would help. Also there’s a bit by festool on Amazon that’s 20mm x 25mm for $45ish that will hog that out quick. You’ll need an 8mm collet as well but much cheaper than the new bits they released. Also, and this one makes me an A-hole but it bugs me for some reason. It’s an Origin, not a Shaper. Looking forward to your desk build. I have a G&G desk planned in another month or so and the Origin will be key in that build. Subscribed.

Amazing, Dave! Thanks for watching. Yeah, I'm going to have to practice saying it's an Origin. Man. I'm well aware that there is an entire tool already called a shaper but I guess I've always defaulted to that. Good point for sure 👍. I'll look into those finishing passes. I used a Dremel to get rid of the finite burning so I appreciate the advice!

Nice project. Not sold on the Shaper Origin yet though. It seems like a lot of work after its use.

Thanks for watching! It's definitely another tool and not at all necessary. But I've been surprised how often I turn to it now that I have it.

As mentioned elsewhere in these comments, lots (but not all) of the sanding work could have been avoided with a better routing strategy including use of a bigger flat bottomed bit for initial pocket clearing but not to final dimensions. By leaving a few thousandths of an inch in sides and bottom, final router passes with better bits can be used to create the final sizes with better surface finish. Definitely takes practice and will vary depending on router bits, wood, router speed, depth of cut, and etc. Bottom line is this is just a computer guided router. So there's no magic when it comes to surface finish--unless you count the ability to precisely define the amount of wood to be removed on those final passes. That ability can be difficult for hand routing to achieve.

Here’s an explanation of the use various cutters that could do the same job in much less time. kzitem.info/news/bejne/o6JqzIRva6eaq44

@@falknermakes Thanks for sharing this project, I just picked up a barely used Origin and Workstation Saturday and have been devouring everything I can find about using it. Think I’ll attempt making a few of these for my granddaughters to get some experience.

I'm glad it could provide some inspiration and I hope you got a good discount on finding it used. There is a ton to devour for sure!

Make YT videos without building a skillset first. It's a thing.
