Router Table . . .Finished ! ! ! ! ! !

very nice

You did a fine job. I really like the bit storage drawers.

Great router station Gary. I know you put a lot of thought and time into this project so I’m sure it feels great to have the finished project. You have a very functional and spacious router station. I particularly like the tall fence and multi-tiered bit storage. Will you be adding door knobs and drawer pulls or leave it with the clean and sleek look it currently has? Again, this is a nice build. Congratulations.

Nice table. The storage is great.

Looks like a fine example of a must have fixture in any shop ! A ton of storage and ease of access is sign of a good design and one I am sure You will appreciate ! I just yesterday finished my RT fence upgrade and will perhaps post it when I find time, and like You can’t wait to put it through its paces ! Once again sharp looking RT ,thanks for sharing !.....ROB

Nice job Gary! You’ve combined many of the good ideas that I’ve seen in other designs. What are you using for dust collection and what router are you going to install? I’m sure this station will serve you well!

I would like to thank everyone for taking the time to check out my Router Table and leaving great comments.
Joe – Thank you very much . .I haven’t talked to you in a while . .how have you been. Lenny, thank you so much your comment . .Im not sure if im going to use door knobs or draw pulls yet. When are we going to have another get together?
Ellen – Thank you, let me know when you want to build one. . .Im up for a trip to the Cape . .I have to head back up to Maine for some more of that Cherry wood.
Rob – Thank you for the comment, my design really came from this site, just looking at all the router tables that everyone had built and i sat down one day and drew out my router table . .I knew i wanted good storage, and the bit draw i saw on line someplace and decided to incorperate it into my table

Thanks again for the great comments . .

Lorna, you cant see it but on the backside of the fence is the dust collection, ill just hook it up to my shop vac. Right now ill be using my Hitachi M12VC 2-1/4 HP Fixed Base Router – Variable Speed it should be more then enough power and if not. . . .ill get a better router. . .

Gary

You did a great job for your first big Project. Now make some dust.
