Hi, just joined this awsome site. My first router table build, will be updating the fence with the new jessum system (new in australia anyway) and another dust port for the router housing.
Regards, FRB.

If that is in the shop I can’t wait to see what comes out of the shop.

I’m sorry, did you say this was a shop tool or a piece of art? I’d stick that in my living room and admire it.

I have to agree that this is one gorgeous router table. It not only looks solid and well built but it is a fine piece of furniture as well.

Nice job.

Incredible table. You could crank the bit down, slide the fence back and serve red wine and cheese on this beauty. Nice work and welcome to LJs.

Very very nice looking Router Table. The tiger stripe doors just rock! What type of wood did you use there?

Great looking veneering job. (I assume the doors are veneer). I hate to have plain tools in my shop also, Here is my workbench.

Thank you all for your great comments.

Jamie ?: for a table router the triton works great.

sIKE ?: the veneer on the door is figured tasmanian blackwood (left over pieces).

SRINGBOK ?: we will see lol.

ChrisN ?: All of the measurements and design came out of my head on the day i started to make it, would love to see Norm’s table.

Once again thanks to you all, have started on my work bench and will update on that one but for now will be kept busy exploring Lumberjocks.

Regards, Frank.

p:s hope you all get notified on this reply.

What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship… wow! I may be biased as FRB is my brother, but as he lives in OZ and I am in the UK this is one way for me to tell him how wonderful and skilled I think he is. Am so proud of him.
To view his work amongst projects from such talented and caring craftsman is a pleasure. There are pieces on this site that take my breath away.
Anytime you want to get that ‘tallboy’ built and shipped over mate, feel free :)
This is a glorious site, although I do not share your talents, I share your love and appreciation of equisitely crafted objects.
Cheers from the UK.. missing home badly, Cris x
