Router table

[sawdust]

I haven't posted for a while but as I recently got a Triton router from B&Q and have built a table for it, here are a couple of pics:

I fitted T-track to the table to hold the fence in place. It works well and the fence adjusts smoothly and is rock solid when tightened down. The two pieces on the face of the fence adjust side to side to accomodate various router bit diameters.

the top is three sheets of 1/2" MDF glued together, laminated with formica and edged in ash.



The two top drawers are for bit storage and the others are for other bits of router associated junk.



Cheers Mike

Nice work Mike

I bet the door keeps the noise down too - quite jealous of that, but no room for a permanent router table in my shop.


Do you have any fancy contraptions for raising/lowering the router?

Cheers,

The door really does keep the noise down. I was surprised how much difference it made.

The router is a Triton so the raise and lower mechanism is built in so no need for any fancy extras.

You didn't waste any time! I also picked up the Triton at B&Q recently, but a new router table has progressed no further than my imagination so far!

It looks good
