I am a novice woodworker, and I was really struggling to attach my router to the router table. Your video is excellent and exactly what I needed! Thank you so much! 👍🏻

Just ordered one of these on amazon and figured i'd look for a video. Yours was the only one I found that actually was 1. about the correct model (regardless of what video titles said) and 2. was comprehensive enough to actually understand the situation! Sadly I think this is still a "bare minimum" router table, and all the plastic is concerning, but my needs are pretty simple, and I think it'll work well enough for what I'm needing. Thanks for taking the time to make the full video!

I have this table for over a year and it's a good one for weekend projects. A nice addition not mentioned is the two legs have storage compartments where can keep most accessories stowed away. I run a 1/2 - inch Hitachi router so it will accept other routers not only the Bosch. It's best to check if can mount yours before buying. Should know the fence and the bolts don't get any easier to setup in the slot holes with time. So far having lived with it for a time is a good one.

The shims are for the left side of your fence to joint boards.

Thank you so much for this!! Seriously, I am a total newbie to routers and needed this table for smaller projects (I have limited space). You do a great job explaining. Curious, did you ever make the follow up video on how to use it?

No I never had a chance to do a video on how to use it. My job has kept me busy for the last 6 months or so, and the only thing I have really done is round over edges and round corners with a template I found. amzn.to/3ACkcTB Hoping things slow down a little so I can spend some more time in the "shop" soon.

BTW those shims are for spacing out the fence I believe, they slide in between the fence and the rear fence mount.

Shims are to place against the fence to use the routing table as a small jointer.

I'm thinking of integrating the tabletop to my workbench. Do the legs disattach from the top? And approx how thick is the table top? Thank you!
@PoppysWoodworking-vb7re

The top is 1" thick and a few screws you could remove the top from the legs. Could easily fabricate legs, a stand or even make a drop in for a tabletop. Thanks for watching, hope that helps.

nice review…did you buy the pan head screws for mounting the plate or did they come with router? if not…what size are those screws …m4, m5 etc??
@PoppysWoodworking-vb7re
Жыл бұрын
It did come with the screws, had a little pack with a few different sizes in there. Did not check the size, sorry can't help you with that. Luckily I am a bolt hoarder anyhow, so if for some reason it didn't come with them I most likely have them somewhere in a pile. lol Thanks for watching, sorry can't help you on the size.

No it should have come with a small allen key with a handle on it. in the front left side should be a hole, you unlock the router, insert the key and turn it up and down.

Wait you used pan head screws but then the video cut and the pan heads were gone and you were using the flat machine head screws without explanation. I'm guessing the pan heads were too bulky.
@PoppysWoodworking-vb7re

Been a few months now since I did the video but yes it should be flat machine screws. Most likely grabbed the wrong ones to start with trying to record and put it together and when I edited it down just cut the part out where I put the correct ones back in. James Cameron I am not... Thanks for watching and pointing that out if someone else needs the info.

Thank you for the video!@@PoppysWoodworking-vb7re Actually it looks like it has to be pan-head screws that came in a bag with the table. If you check the maual on Page 13 on the photo (Fig. 6) they show pan-head screws. Also on Pages 9-10, where they list all the screws, under each pan-head screw they wrote "for Router". Underneath the plate on the MDF they have special grooves for the pan-head screws so they don't get in a way and the plate could sit flat.

Budget tools have limitations... lol I don't use it enough to justify spending a ton of money on it. If it was an "everyday" tool I used I would have spent a few hundred more and got a bigger better table. Thanks for dropping a comment sorry took a while to reply.
