Bob where do you get the black piece for hooking the hose too?

Hi Bud

That one came from http://www.sommerfeldtools.com/ but I did modify it just a bit, it had a base on it so I took the dremel and cut it off and just use the port and some of the support for it.

Then took some 10-32 x 1 1/2" Allen Flat Hds.and put in two holes to hold it in place...to the DC board, b/4 I modify the hose fiting is was to tall and had a base that would stop the chips from going in easy.

Excellent BJ, I will have to add that to my next order. That DC hook up would sure make clean up easier!

Hi Corey

Yep it sure will and that's the part I hate

I love woodworking but don't like walking on chips/saw dust and the clean up after...I don't mind cleaning the equipment because I use the air gun, but then I need to clean the floor I do have a vac. pickup for the floor but I just about always need to get the broom out..

Just lazzy I guess but the broom and I are NOT mates

They did show me how to use one in the Navy but I never got the hang of it..
Just like mops

Just a add on item for the new little router table...

The Incra Jig is now part of the new systems, see snapshots below

===================

**challagan** · 06-29-2007, 08:28 PM

Hey Bj, damnit I had almost that same vision in adding my Incra to the bench dog but just not enough overhang. That looks great Bj and I bet the colt worked like a breeze. Nice work as usual BJ.

Just came back from Menards.... 711.00 One 36 x 54 Solid Surface Counter Top and 6 2 X 4 plywoods for the new router table and stand

Busy day in the shop tomorrow!

Corey

Thanks Corey

The Colt is the best router for this type of job

I pull the speed way down and it just took on the dovetail cut easy

just like it was made for the Colt and the the samll table

711.oo WOW that kitchen is going to be nice

they don't give that stuff away do they...

What kind of plywood are you going to use ???
Pocket screws and glue up job or T & G with pockets screws ????

If I recall you got the new OP top and you need to make a cabinet for it and a base cabinet also or will it be all in one cabinet ????

Looks like you are set for Sat. have the boss make some ice tea and keep it coming better yet have her give you a hand making the router table and put the counter top in place Sunday

ya right.... HAVE FUN BUD

**challagan** · 06-29-2007, 09:18 PM

Yeah, that solid surface stuff is expensive. It's the nice part of the kitchen cause I didn't go whole hog on cabinets. I bought stock unfinished oak cabinets and finished them myself and changed out some of the hardware, added my own crown moldings and end panels I made out of unfinished paneled doors. They didn't cost 500.00 each but they look good

Here is the kicker the counter top I just ordered it tonight and it is for the top of the 36 inch corner cab and the 18 inch drawered cab on the end so it is 36 by 54 inches. It;s the L in the kitchen. That counter was 600.00 with the back splash. Here is the kicker... the 9 foot long section with a sink cut out and seperate back splash is only 268.00 more than the other counter! Anyway... I am not using top of the line stuff in most cases and compared to granite this isn't either but it is nice than laminate.

I finally have settled on vinyl for the floor. It's not the "trendy" thing but for us it's a quick in and out day job for the installer ( one of the few things I am not doing in it) and it's easy to change down the road, it's soft to the feet and easier on the back and the yahoo's in my house won't tear it up like a wood floor or ruin it with water like a laminate! They call me the sheriff cause I am always chewing butt on somebody on the oak floors I refinished in the hallway and living room... especially the daughter in her dancing shoes, soccer shoes etc. GET THEM DARN THINGS OFF MY FLOOR!!! Son says uh oh.. the sheriff is awake

The rolling base will be some glued up Oak panels that I got free from my father-in-law a few years ago when he was a factory rep for that company and some oak plywood. I will be using glue and pocket screws for this and the router table cabinet it self. I will be building the cabinet for the table like the OP table only mine will have 2 drawers in the side. Bottom shelf in the base will hold the mini router table and some push blocks etc. and the other shelf will hold the OP fences, the Incra jig stuff and if room the Gifkin jig. Going to have some fun tomorrow and the best part is knowing the top is made and don't have to screw with that!

Just some snapshots of the Vac.pickup for the Incra Jig on a the small router table,,,this jig can be removed with two small wing nuts if needed

It's made with some 1/2" MDF 2ea. 10-24 x 1" carr.bolts,2ea. flat waskers,2ea. 10-24 (3/16" ) wing nuts...1" x 2 1/2 plastic apt.pickup tupe...
You will see the jig off to one side of the Incra jig this gives the tube room to lock in the hole....just push it in place and you are set to suck up the chips.

It can be installed quick and easy by just removing the big black plastic wing and slip the Vac.pickup over the Incra jig.

====================

**challagan** · 06-30-2007, 08:22 PM

That's cool Bj, very nice. I would never have thought to do that. Looks like it will work and more!
