Why does my router burn the wood?
| Symptom | Most likely cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Uniform brown line along the profile | Feed too slow, rpm too high | Increase feed or drop rpm by 2,000 |
| Burn only at corners | Dwelling in the cut | Keep moving, or rout before cutting to length |
| Burn with a new bit | Too many flutes for the wood, or too high rpm | 2 flutes, 16,000-18,000 rpm |
| Burn and fuzz together | Dull edge | Replace or resharpen |
| Burn in a deep groove | Depth too great, chips cannot clear | Two passes, clear chips |
Resin makes it worse: a bit with burnt resin on the flutes runs hotter and burns the next piece sooner. Clean the flutes after every session.
Note on cherry and maple: these scorch visibly at temperatures where oak shows nothing. The burn is a warning, not just a cosmetic problem — the same heat is dulling the carbide.
