New Router Table

[Terry W]

After many years of using a router bolted to a piece of plywood and clamped across two sawhorses, I finally built me a new router table. The design is a little bit Norm Abram, and a little bit Wood Magazine. The Hitachi router I bought over ten years ago. It's been resting in the original box all this time. I didn't know it would take me this long to finally get around to it.

Tilt top for easy access.

Nice job. I like it.

Looks great. Do you have a dust collection hookup on the back of the fence?

Yes, plus I'm planning to add a Y connector for a hose to go down into the router area. Probably next week.

Well done, the tilt top is a nice addition.

Now you are going to make more work for me. Mine is almost exactly like yours only without the tilt top. Looks like a great idea. Now I have to go to the shop and see how much work it would be to modify mine. I can't remember how the top is fastened.

I've got a tilt top on one of my dual router tables. It's very handy.

Very nice indeed! I may borrow your tilt top ides if I EVER get around to building a table.
