Hello all,
I purchased my first router table a couple years ago, and do not know a ton about them. The table was hand-built and I really like most of it except the insert plate is 8 1/4" x 11 3/4" with a little shim (Old Woodcraft or Old Jessem size I believe), I have to take out 6 phillips head screws every time I want to change a bit, and not a huge fan of the fence.
I was originally going to try and template cut a new standard size insert plate when I stopped at MLCS today. I was very interested in their table top (Eagle America) with fence system. The one I looked at was a standard top at 9 1/4 x 11 3/4 I believe, but then I would also have to purchase the lift.
Does anyone have any recommendations or reviews on this? Is there something better I should be looking at? And lifts as well?
This is all hoping that I can get my table top off. I will include some photos. I run a 3.5hp Milwaukee fixed base production router in here.
Thanks!!
