Router bit tip

I found out the the reason my dovetail router bit was slipping last week when I was making my sliding-lid box. I never knew that you arent supposed to slide bits all the way into the routers collet. Apparently it doesnt hold as tightly, causing the bit to slip. Woodsmith Magazine has a tip describing a method to ensure your bits stay where they belong. (Sorry, they dont have a way of embedding it here.)***
