Norms Router Cabinet #5: Drawers and Trays are done

Can you send me a pic of how the fence t-bolt is routered or mortised in? Is it just a wide track? I would think it would get narrower for the thread part of the bolt. Other manufactured router tables I have seen use a carriage bolt because the square portion keeps the bolt from turning. That is my only wonder on how it is done. I have watched the video several times. I don’t need the measured drawing just for that info. In fact I am going to make my own dimensions a little different that Norm’s but use his basic design. Thanks for any help you or anyone can give me.

I can’t wait to see the finished product. You are making solid progress on this. This is going to be one top notch addition to your shop.

This is coming along very nicely. I’ve been following this with some interest since I own a table just like this. However, I bought mine half-finished at an estate sale so I didn’t get the pleasure of building mine from the ground up. Of course, given some of the things you’ve run into, maybe that’s not a bad thing :)

Nice job! Can’t wait to see the series on the top when you get to it.

Hi sIKE;

This is looking real good. I’ll bet you can’t wait to give it a try.

Very vice work!
