Router Table Build
We’d been using a small bench top router table (Kreg) for a while. It worked great but had limited surface area on which to work. The solution: build a new one! We’re woodworkers — right?
That’s exactly what we did. The design is fairly conventional and based one one designed by Bill Hylton. Of course we had to adapt it to suit ourselves — and do some experiments with different drawer constructions along the way. I think it turned out well.
Pics of table follow.
Done at Last!
