Hi everyone,
Well I've taken the plunge and bought a DeWalt 625EK router. I also bought a Router Table package from Rutlands which has a Woodpecker Table Top and Super Fence with a 235mm x 298mm Jessem phenolic insert plate. Trouble is the insert plate is able to move around within the rebate of the table - about 1/2 mm each way. The screw holes in the Jessem plate don't match with the Woodpecker table's rebate so I can't screw it down tight without modifying the table or the plate. Having spent several hundred pounds buying the kit I don't feel happy about butchering it to get it to fit just right - but am I being too cautious? Will the 1/2 mm play in the insert make a significant difference?
Great forum by the way, thanks.
