Herein, what direction do you run a router?

When you're holding the router in hand with the bit facing downward, it will spin in a clockwise direction. To feed against the bit's rotation then, you'll move the router from right to left when feeding the router along the outside edges of a work- piece.

Beside above, which way do I point my router antenna? Position the antenna upward for a better horizontal reach, or sideways for vertical reach. In a multi-story home, positioning a router's antenna sideways can help you get a better signal upstairs. Pointing an antenna up helps the router reach farther laterally.

Likewise, should you push or pull a router?

When looking straight down at the top of a router, the bit rotates in a clockwise direction. That means you should move the router from left to right, but—and this is important—that's only true when the router is positioned in the middle between you and the workpiece.

How do I stop my router from chipping?

Ease the router gently into the corner and pull it slowly back toward you a half inch or so. Then, stop the tool and start the cut where you normally would, routing across the end grain to meet your climb cut (see Photo 5).
