I have a solid oak countertop, overhanging a little more than an inch. I need to cut a square groove underneath, about 5/8" wide and 1/8" deep, roughly centered in the overlap. This will be for a downward facing strip of LEDs
Removing the countertop for the operation is impractical.
Not enough room for an upside-down router. Sideways maybe, but that doesn't give me a lot of surface to run the router on, and I have no idea what type of bit could be used safely for this.
A plow plane might do it, but modern ones all seem to have the adjustments happening on the plane and would not fit. I have seen a photo of an old one where the adjustment happens on the fence. That would work, but no idea where to get such a beast.
How would you cut this?
Thanks
Gerd
