Project Information

I made this adjustable router table a few years ago and still use it on occasion. It will go from 0 to 90 degrees and anywhere in between. It opens up a new area for routing but I mostly used it for routing splines into odd shaped cabinet boxes. I also used it to make columns with. There is an example of a column I made in the pictures. I splined together 8 sides and routed a flute in the piece before I put them together. It's actually quite simple and works pretty good.

Here is a sample video of how it works and on how I join together an 8 sided column.

Dutch, I worked on it in my head for about a week. Then drew some rough scetches and some mock ups before I actually started building it.

I followed Marks web page URL and found that the plans for this are listed.

The router table plans are below the router mill kit and plans.
I'm planning on building these machines and have ordered the router mill kit with plans. If this guy Mark is as good as I think he is, this is going to be FUN! :)
