Planer bridge

Ist superquick and i think you dont have to sand after which imho is necessary with a router.
Will see how it works with the abs. Not sure if i will rebate before or after profiling. Did one core on the big planer with rebate and the abs got damaged where it was thinner then 3mm.
Start and end the core must be longer, this parts get easily damaged while working.
So i have to find a solution for the jig, cutting out manually is not the way to go, long term. I have a idea in mind for adjustable jig, will try this after ski season. If this works i think you can shape a new profile quicker then changing the planer crib, gluing the core to the crib (abs!) and use the big planer (where you need 2 people with a big crib like mine).
Will post pics with finished (or destroyed) cores tomorrow

With this type of crib you need a roller to push down the core, no?
With hand planer you have to push it down?
I planned the other way round because i had troubles with the crib (which worked same way like yours) and planer.
But you bring me to an idea! Instead of cutting the rails i can reuse my crib and just bolt straight pieces to the sides. Will check that out, would save a lot of hassle.
