  1. Table-mounted Routing
    I’m going to install a router lift and after a long debate, I’ve decided to mount it in my T-track feed table/workbench I built Instead of on the wing of my Grizzly cabinet saw. I’m having an issue finding a good lift compatible with my BOSCH MRP23EVS Plunge Router. I know it’s not compatible...
  2. Table-mounted Routing
    I am looking to purchase a router to fit into a third party router lift (you remove the router motor and install into the lift). The lift says it is for 65 mm diameter router motors. I am having issues finding the diameter for various routers in this category. I wonder if anyone knows more...
  3. Table-mounted Routing
    After two years of use and development I have a new router lift to display. This is like no other router lift. It has two positions to mount the router. Vertical like the rest of the lifts and horizontal for mortise and tenon cuts. Its very accurate and hasn't lost any abilities in over two...
  4. Table-mounted Routing
    I have a Makita 3601B mounted to my router table. Bit changing requires two wrenches (and two hands...) and is not possible from the top. I solved it by machining a special wrench-shaped handle, cut from a 3 mm steel plate using a jigsaw and metal blade. To change the bit, using the router...

    So I need a router table. Currently I have a bosch 1617 fixed base router screwed to a piece of MDF. I have been, and will be doing a lot of template work (1/4" template, 1/2" workpiece) and then chamfering or rounding over all the flush-trimmed parts. I will occasionally need a fence. So I'm...

    Good day all. I recently bought a Ryobi RE-1200 Router and RT-800 table, to improve my workshop setup with my smaller; portable router (Sparky 500W). What a pleasure to work with this table rather than my crude wooden setup! However, true to my nature, I try to improve continually, e.g. a. I...

    BRAND NEW! I never got a chance to build my dream router table (kids, time, etc.) So, I have the raw materials that I purchased for it. This router lift is on of the best available and comes in its original packaging. It is perfectly paired with a Porter Cable 7518 3 1/4 HP router, which is also...

  16. Table-mounted Routing
    Hello. Just registered for this forum after reading some great comments from all of you. Maybe one of you can help me with an issue I have. I really like the Pinnacle lift and the Kreg Router Table, but I don't think my Skil 8125 plunge router can be used with this lift. Does anyone know...
