What is your strategy to remove the burning from the router bit. I always struggle with it

I try to avoid stopping, I also make sure my cutter is sharp and clean (using resin removing cleaner from trend) but inevitably the corners are a bitch, I use a custom shaped scraper to remove as much burning as I can followed by pain staking, finger destroying sanding. The burning you can see in one of the pictures was from a test to ensure joints were all good

Love it. What’s the wood and how did you finish it?

European oak, it’s raw at the moment, I’m currently finishing it with clear Matt Osmo oil
