A poor mans lipping planer for relatively thin edging on straight or curved edges. I came up with this for trimming edgebanded curved corbels and it works well for that. On straight edges, some form of chip ejection would probably need to be added.
The 1/2" router base has t-nut slots for mounting the fence and threaded holes for adjustment screws (locked w/ thumb nuts). While the nuts fit the slots snugly, I added opposing screws to insure the fence doesn't move when tightening it down. Long cap screws run through the fence to mount it to the router base. While some pictures show a 3-wing laminate bit, a standard 1/2" two flute works better. The router is a Porter-Cable 7310.
