Great Looking Setup!!

Have you had any trouble with the extended miter track?

That looks like my Jessem Xacta router lift that came with my JET cabinet saw. However , your table is certainly of higher quality and I like the added track. My lift is facing in the opposite direction , so there is no room to install the track .

patron – the fence on the lift came with it, it’s ok but eventually I’ll build a much better one. The long (white) fence is the table saw fence

lew – there is no purpose for the track to be that long. I just haven’t taken the time to cut it off yet.

Dusty56 – the lift is a Jessem (problably the same as on your saw) I specifically installed it backwards so I could have the track. You should be able to just turn yours around and get the same result. NOTE: if you do….you will have to re-tap the screw holes for the fence because once the lift is turned around, they are on the feed side of the bit.

that is a great looking router table… i did the same thing as you did…however i did it without the insert….now that i have a stand alone shop ( i dont have to share it with the wife’s car) i think i will make it more permanent set up like the one you have…..hope you don’t mind me borrowing a few of your ideas.

I’m not going to mess around with it because I already have another router table with the track in it : ) Thanks for the feedback !

Screwge, Thanks for posting this project. I have been contemplating this very thing for my Delta contractors saw. The undertable shoots were specially helpful Jim

I made this a favorite. I bought another router today for a TS wing installation. Your work will be instructive for my project.
thanks for posting.

Great looking table and very versatile. I like where you mounted the switch. Good job.
