Mill-Right Router table

[gtrboy77]

I have a Mill-Right Router table that I don’t use that I would like to sell. It comes with an Elu router for the lower part like a traditional router table. There are also attachments to mount a router from the side and from above (like a pin router). Also comes with another router (see pic) that is mounted in the side attachment and the mobile base. It is rather top-heavy. I would like $400 for it. Located in Spartanburg, SC.

Bump….

This looks interesting but I am having a hard time understanding how all of the attachments and add-ons work by looking at the photos.

Here are a couple pics that how the side-mount and top-mount attachments work.

@gtrboy77
good day
Hate bringing up old threads but there's so little information on this router table hoping maybe you might have other information you could share. Was it easy to use did it do what it was intended for or was it just a novelty item that failed.

Much thanks Joe

Hi Joe,

I had copies of the manual for the router table at one time. They’re still online in another forum, I’m sure. Here’s the deal with the unit. It has so much potential, but it was so top-heavy and the legs and supporting structure were under-built. Same with the tiny little casters on it. Hardly any information was available and also I couldn’t figure out how to use or mount the attachments. Because of this I rarely used it in the 12 years I owned it and sold it and took a loss (I believe I was the second owner). I think the whole thing could have been built better and I think you shouldn’t waste your time on it. It is WAY too heavy and takes up a good bit of space, especially if you have all the attachments.

FYI - Simple search led me to this 10+ year old thread and 'manual' in 2 parts from "Router Forums"

Thanks for taking the time to respond.
I did find the manuals online for it which weren't very helpful in regard of how well it worked which is why I was hoping to find out.
Last thing I need is something takes up a lot of space that's a novelty item. I surely don't need I wish it could do the work and it couldn't.
One of the other forms I found that the handles were easily broken but not much comments on its use found original review for it and it was light on information also so it sounds like it needs to be a pass. Even though this does belong to one of the guys I work with it was his father-in-law's originally it looks like it's in good condition in the pictures. But if it's too hard to set up too hard to use definitely not worth the aggravation
Thanks and have a good day
