Default Best of both worlds
Report Post Report This Post!

This is more of How-To than a show n' tell..

This is how to put a Hoizontal router setup on standard router table and then you have the best of both worlds...all in one router cabinet setup..

You will see I use a standard 9" x 12" router mounting plate ,(the drop in type) in this way you can use one router for both jobs by just taking out some screws and then pop it back in the table top...
The Craftsman router work great for this setup because it comes with a chip pickup tube built it plus it's a snap to change out the bits or set them up..
