RAISED PANEL CUT WITH A ROUTER 

 

The door template can be removed since the bearing 

on the panel bit will follow the edge of the panel, not the 

template. Make sure you have at least 1" of the bit shank 

in the router. If extra bit height is needed to cut the full 

profile depth, you may need to use a router lift or 

collet extension. You'll need to make sure the 

panel sticks out past the Base at least 

1-5/8" to prevent the raised panel 

bit from cutting into the Base. 

 

Clamp the panel in the HD 

Panel Master with the toggle 

clamps, hold the handles 

and make incremental 

passes to machine 

the raised panel 

profile on the panel.

RAISED PANEL CUT WITH A SHAPER 

 

If possible 

(depends on raised panel cutter & bearing set up)

, keep the 

HD Door Template on the HD Panel Master when machining the raised panel 

profile. The templates are extra long so the bearing can make contact with 

the template before the cutter makes contact with the panel. This 

provides greater control and increases the margin of safety. 

 

The height of the spacer stacks under the 

template should place the template at the optimum 

height for your shaper cutter bearing to ride firmly 

on the edge of the template. Adjust the number of 

1/4" and 1/8" spacers as necessary to achieve 

the best template height. Make sure the 

shaper cutter will not hit the template. 

 

Make sure the template is in line 

with the raised panel cutter bearing. Clamp 

the panel in the HD Panel Master with the 

toggle clamps, hold the handles and make incremental 

passes to machine the raised panel profile on the panel.

FLUSH TRIM PANEL TO SHAPE

 

Clamp the panel blank in the HD 

Panel Master, hold the handles and 

flush trim the panel to shape 

using a flush trim cutter 

on your router or 

shaper. The 

bearing of the 

flush trim bit 

will follow the 

panel template 

and cut the panel 

to its finished 

shape. 

You 

can use 

the HD 

Panel Master 

to hold the 

panel for 

the raised 

panel cut 

on the panel 

end just shaped 

(see below)

After making the raised 

panel cut, the panel tongue will 

fit into the groove in the mating rail.
