In general, on a router table that means feeding from your right to your left. 2) Cut downhill as much as possible on any slope or curve along the edge grain of the wood. 3) Approach corners so you transition from edge grain to end grain rather than end grain to edge grain.  One sure way to guarantee you can follow these rules is to be prepared to work with your pattern both above and below your workpiece.
