    Reading something earlier . About a guy that kept getting router bits stuck in router .He discovered that when he hadn't got a tool in he was tightening the collet down,this caused the collet to stick lock up. Replaced the collet and he was fine might be worth trying that first. So Guys always leave collet lose when no router bit in machine .

    The problem lies with the little button you depress to hold the shaft when you're undoing the collet. I think the teeth are worn in one direction, you can do it up no worries but when you push it in to undo it just slips.

    Got all the top routing finished and the holes drilled this morning, just have to clean up the sides a bit more then it's time to start carving.
    I changed my mind at the last minute and opted for a Les Paul style toggle switch in favour of the Tele 3 way, hence the third larger hole.
