My old router table served me well for the last 10-12 years but I wanted a new one that allowed mobility. I decided this week to get it started... I built it from Birch plywood and Poplar (I'm frugal... Wife says cheap:gar-La
I wanted bit trays I could take out easily yet hold plenty... Holds 96 total allowing for 1/4" and 1/2" bits.
The tray slides were a simple design I got from Woodcraft magazine.
I put a heavy duty drawer in the bottom with 100# full extension KV slides and a tray for small things.
I still have to put in the switch / plug and put the DC connection on the back. I am going to try and start the top next week.
You can see the old table in the back ground... I am giving it to a friend who is just getting started. And that is my best friend to the right side of the pic... My two year old puppy Jake!
