Abstract
A sled for guiding a common hand router to cut a precision planar surface on a workpiece has plywood frame rails spaced by cradles supporting the workpiece between the frame rails. Base rails riding on the upper edge surfaces of the plywood frame rails are sequentially incrementally advanced at intervals along the frame rails in an X-axis direction by a linear ratchet assembly. A router is reciprocated in Y-axis directions during the intervals between the sequential incremental advances of the base rails, cutting a precision planar surface on the workpiece. The router is adapted to adjust the Z-axis elevation of the router cutter. The sled may be manually operated or automated.
