![]() ![]() Even if one hole is a tiny bit off, when you countersink all of the holes from the top of the insert plate, the router should align just fine. Once we marked the holes, Bob drilled them out using the drill press. BE SURE you orient the router base correctly onto of the insert, remember, the router is upside down in the router table. If you remove this plastic plate, you can then use it as a template for figuring out where your holes need to go. TIP - most routers come with a plastic base cover that is attached to the aluminum base of the router by 3 or 4 bolts. Of course the router needs to be attached to the bottom of the plate, so we flipped the insert over, and what do we see but target lines on the underside to help us properly align the router holes. Sadly, there are NO standards for router bases, which means pretty much every router or brand of router has different hole configurations. What this means is that the plate needs to be marked and drilled with holes so that the router can be attached. The next thing that Bob and I did was to prepare the router plate insert for his router. If you do this, the screws coming through from the underside can actually push the aluminum slot right out of it's dado slot (which is not a big deal, it just means you have to re-glue it back in place. In assembling router tables, there is always one thing to watch out for and that is that you don't try to install the base directly to the top where the feather-board slot is located. Īnd Bob and I almost got carried away on the assemble without stopping to film what we were doing because it was all coming together so nicely. Once the legs are assembled the next thing is to attache the top. Putting the legs and braces together is always first and I liked how supplied nuts and bolts that really locked the frame solidly as you were assembling it. As usual, laying out all the parts before you get started, assuming you have the room is always best. There are a lot of different pieces and a lot holes where things could get installed but shouldn't be. If you have never assembled one of these before, you really do need to read the instructions. When I first saw the box, I wondered how they could pack everything into such a small box, but everything was there, right down to every nut and bolt. Since I have never had the opportunity to really look at this unit, helping to put it together is a perfect way to see the working details. In this video I get to help a friend of mine, Bob, assemble his new Kreg router table. Since I can't afford to purchase every tool, not do I have the room, I use every opportunity to check out new tools. ![]() Dimensions insert rings: 25.I try and get involved with as many tools as I can so I can see which ones I like and which ones to avoid.Dimensions Router Tableplate: 610 x 406 x 26 mm.Rip fence easily and quickly dismantled.cable holder for excess cable of the router Three insert rings with diameters of 25.4 mm, 30 mm and 67 mm to reduce the size of the cutter opening.Cross braces for even more stable and robust stand.Swivel feet for a safe stand, even in scales.Rip fence with laterally adjustable cheeks for planing, depth adjustable from 1.4 to 2.4 mm.Exchangeable, 9.5 mm thick insert plate made of very hard plastic with insert rings and bayonet lock for almost all upper router.Adjustable rip fence made of aluminium with sliding cheeks made of MDF.The fence also has independent sliding faces that provide increased workpiece support around the bit, and allow the table to be used as a vertical jointer. And the integrated dust collection socket allows a clean workspace at any time. They allow quick fence adjustment and confident locking, plus they are sized so they're easy to use but stay out of the way behind the fence. ![]() The heavy-duty aluminum fence features quarter-turn locking levers. These rings twist into place and lock in flush with the plate surface every time. ![]() The Precision Router Table Insert Plate measures 235 mm x 298 mm x 9,5 mm to support even the biggest routers, and it features Level-Loc Reducing Rings. The skin is constructed from a custom-textured laminate, which allows you to easily slide workpieces across the table. The top is made from an edgebanded, vibration- and noiseresistant MDF, and features an Easy-Slide™ surface.
