Was recently given a router recreator without any manuals or instructions.
Would appreciate any information or help that is out there.

Thanks for posting the pics bobj3. Could you post some more of some of the projects you have used it for? I looked a bit through the forum and haven't yet found any.
I have this machine and would love to get some ideas of what it would be useful for, especially if it could replace a panto router.
I would love to be able to make;
Milk crate inspired wooden boxes
but getting all the mortises accurately lined up is putting me off...
Yeah, didn't really see the recreator working for that. That's why I was hoping for some project examples.Hi Jubilee
Thanks for the PDF file, I have tried to upload the one I have but it was always to big for the forum, but I have added the file you posted the manual files..
I will did around a bit and see if I can find some files to upload.
But I will say I don't think the Recreator is the tool for the job for the Milk crate boxes..

As for the milk crate, I guess a template, with all five mortises, carefully centered should work. Make it as accurately as possible and mirror it top to bottom to account for small errors...
Yeah, I found Matthias Wandel's site when I was planning some modular "milk crate" like book storage cases a couple of years ago. He is my hero... baby steps!Hi
I did find one picture on the HD I didn't take many pictures of the projects I made with it...
It's more of a copy cat machine but it can be use free also.
But the milk crates you want make and the web page you posted is of a guy that used 5 machine (plus fixtures) he made to make them ,he is very sharp ..
I for one would not put in the five mortises in place I would just put in a long slot and put in some spaces to fill the gaps..
