Router table update
I’m nearly done with the router table cabinet. I think I’ll shoot a separate video for the top and fence. Tomorrow I have a bunch of drawers to make and I should be just about finished with this part.
I like the way it’s coming together using modular construction. I built the two side pieces and the center separately and the attached them together. It really made things easier. Since I don’t have a very detailed plan, it helped me to visualize where I was going with it.

For what it’s worth I saw a video where a router table was made from leftover counter tops…like the right size scrap left over from a counter top installation. Your local shop may have some laying around.

I may be overreacting but if I’d bought that kreg insert and then found out I had to buy leveling screws separately, I’d have returned it for a refund and bought another make of insert. Leveling screws should not be considered an option as they are necessary practically 100% of the time. Kreg is basically telling their customers “this is how much our product is…if you want this insert to work PROPERLY though, it’ll cost you more money”. How can you patronize a Company that operates like that?

Which plan did you use for the cabinet? Looks like something I’d want to do.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw it. I would like to know too.

About the the power switch I use an Air Actuated Foot Switch, it works great. You don’t have to fumble around for the switch on the saw. I bought mine from Lee Valley because the is a store close to me.
