I don't have that model.but have their lift for a 7518 and a quick lift and like them both. I have purchased many things from Woodpecker and have always be satisfied.

I also have a lift kit from them and it is right up town. I love it. I think all of their products are very well made. I would recommend a lift kit to anyone from them.

 

They make high qualitystuff. I use thier plate and few other things. But as far as router lift, I would recommend Router Raizer. not that it's any better but it is attached to the router and you can still use the router free-hand and also use it to set depth from top. and costs much less.

Thanks for the info/opinions. Everyone on this forum has been most generous in sharing their experience and perspective and I greatly appreciate it.

This company is located in Cleveland, Ohio (suburb) and it is strickly a mail order company. It has some great products and the BBB has a very good track record on them. I just wish it was a company with a showroom.

 

I have this lift/router combination. Going into the purchase, I debated the overall cost and whether this was too much to spend. Now that I have it (along with the Pinnacle version of the micro-dot router table top), I have no regret whatsoever. The router lift is awesome and I do not know how I tolerated my previous setup for so long. It is well worth the price!

 

There are several lifts available and they all work. A couple of members have made their own by using a board like a see-saw; step on the board and the router lifts. It isn't pretty but it works like a charm. You also save a bunch of cash to spend on bits.

 

"It isn't pretty but it works like a charm"

Wash your mouth out Mr. McGrath, I think that mine looks very pretty! (and it works like a charm)

 

The PC 7539 does not come apart (ie the pc 7518 is the motor used in most lifts) I have the 7539 and you can't take the motor out to put in a lift. You could buy the plate from Pinnicle and use it that way.

 

I haven't purchased anything from Woodpeckers YET, but I'm working on it! Their products look first class all the way, and I've heard nothing but rave reviews about their products.

 

just another positive for woodpeckers. I've dealt with them on several occasions both over the phone asking questions and having ordered a good bit of stuff from them. It's all been good. I speak well enough for their products. I've got the prlv2 lift and love it...

 

Motorizing the Plunge Lift?

I just ordered one of these this afternoon for my DW625. I had considered the Router Raizer, but since the wife reminded me that Fathers day is coming up there would be a few more bucks in the budget, I figured what the hay! I need a new plate anyway so I can kill two birds with one stone, albeit a more expensive stone. I am considering adding a motor later; it *looks* like a motor can be made to work off the shaft from below. Has anyone motorized the Plunge Lift?

 

Hi Frank

Here's just one way to get the job done

Thanks Bob. I came across that post earlier. That is one sweet set up! I guess since the threaded shaft is unhindered from below it should not be too difficult to add a motor to the plunge lift.
