Customer photo review of Swappable Palm/Trim Router Table Plate For Dual Handle Router Base

Mike D.Verified

This is such a great idea! It’s easy to use as a mini router table. I modified my setup because I already have a small, homemade table I wanted to mount the acrylic into. Certainly nothing fancy and the fence needs reworked but very effective. Thanks again!

Customer photo review of Router Templates 8 Pack - Handle Shaping Acrylic Templates

Randy P.Verified

Templates arrived , well packaged. I love the templates however, after multiple uses they start to breakdown using the router. My recommendation is add an additional 1/8” in thickness making them more robust. Highly recommend.

Steve L.Verified

This was my first router bowl project. It was easy enough to use. I will be making another one soon. I’ve learned how to do it a little bit better. Great product.

Customer photo review of 15.75x8.75" Roman Cross Acrylic Router Template

Gregory D.Verified

Perfectly smooth template. Pilot bearing of the router bit follows the template well. I trace out the pattern and then trim very close to the line so I am removing as little material as possible. I'm using hardwoods so I learned to slow the router speed down to not burn up the bit. Very happy with the template.

Customer photo review of Dewalt (DWP611/DCW600B) Palm/Trim Router Base Plate - Two Handle

Bill H.Verified

Excellent trim router base for trimming mountain dulcimer top and bottom pieces. I added the sawdust deflector to keep the shavings from going all over the place. Very good baseplate accessory to control the router bit while flush trimming.

Customer photo review of 18x5x1" Wine Bottle Shaped Cheese Board Silicone Mold - Serving Board Mold

Robert L.Verified

The rectangular board is from a Crafted Elements 10X18 mold I used in a class in early December at WoodCraft Supply. The wine bottle boards are made from epoxy resin and olive wood. For the second one I used the matching template which made working with the very hard olive wood much much easier. And a shout out to my instructor, Terry Daugherty. Terry is a professional woodworker who recommends your molds. Her website is WildEdgeWoodworking.com

Customer photo review of 17.5X8.5X1" Dual Small Bowl Raised Dog Feeder Silicone Mold

Jerry W.Verified

It's pretty easy to build and shape. For this build, I mixed different shades of green and blue to give it a turquoise Florida-surf look. I've also done the template version made entirely of wood. Both versions are quite nice in their own way and get a lot of compliments. I do see a lot of possibilities in customizing the surface of the bowl holder that would make a great gift or if selling.

Customer photo review of XL High Performance Template Router Bit - 3/8" Spiral Up Cut Flush Trim Bit With 1.5" Cutter

Craig B.Verified

Much of the wood I use is thick so I needed a larger router bit. This one from Crafted Elements is heavy duty 1/2” bit and razor sharp. Everything I’ve purchased from CE has been top notch.

Tina H.Verified

I originally went to their site to buy molds but ended up liking this idea better. It was so easy to do. It came out beautiful and I know my son and his family will love it! This was my first time making a backgammon board. I also did the 3 chessboards. Thank you so much Crafted Elements you made the process SO easy!!

Maple Lighthouse inlay in walnut. I created a bit of a trough around the perimeter and applied ocean blue metallic epoxy and also sparkling gold in the window…This was a charcuterie board the cashier at the local hardware store ask me about for her parents for Christmas.

I have sold several of these Charcuterie boards. This template was easy to use. I recommend a 1/4" spiral downcut pattern bit or 1/4" spiral compression pattern bit it will make flush trimming easier.

This was my first time using a template and my new router table. I made some mistakes and cut a small piece of my template but hopefully this will add character to my future projects! I'm more than happy with crafted elements router templates and can't wait to try another!

Jerrell S.Verified

Just love mine. Added to the side of my ears bench. Sold my big router table because this one will do all I need. Made a simpler outer fence to use when needed. Still need to work on some dust control system - perhaps tomorrow.

Customer photo review of 6x4.2x1" Double Mini Cross Silicone Mold For Epoxy Resin - Keepsake Sized

Maria Del Carmen P.Verified

I love these molds! I took on a project of making 40 crosses for my dad’s memorial mass service with zero experience with resin. I watch the entire basic series and every tutorial video @craftedelements YouTube channel. The result was awesome! I tried the mold with many colors, alcohol inks and mica powder. That was two months ago. Since then I have purchased more molds to explore. I am very very happy with my cross molds that look like new after 15 uses!!

Customer photo review of 14.5x14.5x0.5" Medium Chess Board Silicone Mold With 1.5" Squares

Kevin M.Verified

This was the first REAL chessboard I made. I originally purchased a cheap version on Amazon and threw it away after 2 uses. This chessboard mold is the real deal. I've made 4 of them so far and every time I share the video with family and friends, somebody buys it. If you want to impress your chess playing friends... this is the ticket!

Virginia L.Verified

If you want to support your resin business-consider investing in this set of domed molds. I use this mold more than any other for memorial work. I often dry the roses and other blossoms-then use a hole punch to stamp out hearts. Carnation petals and greenery work great, also. I’ve made as many as 75 for one family. Yes, I ordered a dozen or so of this particular mold. It refracts and the doming takes the finished product to the next level.

Customer photo review of 9.0x6.7" Single Christmas Bell Tray 2 Acrylic Router Template [Limited Edition]

Gordon S.Verified

The router templates are high quality and great to use. They eliminate the time it takes to cut and sand DIY templates with perfectly smooth curve. Crafted Elements has excellent customer service and speedy delivery. Not for the comment: I did cut out the dividers in the Christmas tree (bought the template before you made the template without the dividers). I would appreciate it if you would note on templates the radius of the tightest corners on the templates. My smallest bowl bit was 3/...

Customer photo review of 15.9X2.75" Bread Cutting Bow Knife 1 Acrylic Router Template

Hanalima S.Verified

It was fast and efficient. I used a Trim Router Sled to even up my poplar, ash, and oak planks and the Acrylic Router Template to stencil first and then rough cut my blanks. Next is to use the Template + Router Table to trim the final shape, another pass with a round-over bit, finishing, and assembly.

Customer photo review of 16x15" State Of Texas + Star Inlay Acrylic Router Template

Farron F.Verified

The Texas template is my most ordered item since I live in Texas. This was my most challenging charcuterie board template to cut on the bandsaw. I recommend a 1/4" spiral bit and a lot of patience to flush trim this. I was very pleased with the quality and ease of using these templates.

Customer photo review of Cross Inlay Acrylic Router Template - 3 Cross Sizes

Farron F.Verified

I created my first inlay with this template. This inlay template was easy to use with a 1/4" template router bit. I also used the template to trace out the size of the piece I was using for the inlay. The fit was perfect. I recommend this template for beginners and seasoned woodworkers.

Customer photo review of 15.7x12" Small Round Charcuterie Board With Handle Acrylic Router Template

Russell B.Verified

Another great template from Crafted Elements. Easy to use to make nice looking boards. The only improvement suggestion I have for this template is that it would be nice to have center markings on it, at least on top of handle and bottom of the circle. Etched markings would make it easier to line up for striped boards like this. Thank you!

Customer photo review of Juice Groove Router Jig

Mike F.Verified

The jig makes juice groove cutting quick, simple and accurate. I used to have to set up my router table with shop blocks for juice grooves, but there was always guesswork involved meaning wasted wood and potential for a ruined project. I am very happy this jig is now in my shop, thank you!

Customer photo review of 4.0x0.5" Mermaid Scales Textured 4 Coaster Silicone Mold

Jason B.Verified

Excellent quality mold. Nice that the mermaid scales allow for catching "drips" from a beverage but are not so deep that they require the mold to be filled to the brim. This allows for thinner coasters using less resin if one chooses. Although I did a solid color on these, the "scales" are deep enough to easily create a pattern without overlap too.

I used a mix of blue epoxy with brazilleta. The form was an easy way to contain the epoxy until the epoxy set. Ejection from the mold worked as advertised.

Customer video review of 18x9x1.5" Silicone Mold For Epoxy Resin - Charcuterie Board Form

James S.Verified

I bought a mold that was twice the price of the on you sell. It was very nice and had the cross braces and the tightening knobs to hold down the wood.. Nice. slightly hard to get the charcuterie board out but not too. bad. Then I bought yours 9.5"x18". Used the spray release you recommend and my goodness just a breeze to take the mold off!! Wish I'd bought your mold first. Thanks! Great product!!!

David C.Verified

First time using resin. I watched hours of YouTube before I bought anything. I noticed people were using the Crafted Element molds with fantastic results when they demob. I’m new to his but I know quality products and Crafted Elements is. I sprayed the release agent into the mold before pouring and the finished product popped out of the mold. Resin casting is amazing, I have a house full of wood bowls, my family has more bowls than they can use. My daughter has asked me not to leave...

Nice quality mold. Well made. I like the idea of being able to put 2 crosses in one mold. The curvature in the mold makes it a bit difficult to incorporate wood unless you have a few extra tools like a router to round over the wood edges.
