Thankyou. I just put one in my basket. I will now remove it and look for another one.

I was thinking about buying one of these, but now I'll reconsider. Thanks for your concise and objective review

Thank you for your review, it was quite damning - you have saved me time, money & frustration.

A bad video says nonsense! This milling machine is for someone who can do it themselves at home so that it works with good accuracy. Just for someone with quite handy hands. I have had this router for several years, at first it wanted to adjust the feed and detent, nothing complicated. Since then it's been OK and I also make old furniture. If you can't do it yourself at home and set it up, buy a professional machine at 5 times the price or make a milling machine yourself.

Sorry to hear about your experience. I think you should ask for a replacement from your supplier immediately after seeing the table top. My table is perfectly flat - max 0.3mm gap diagonally. Bought mine from MachineMart and.... my review: Excellent packaging and fast delivery from Machine Mart. This unit appears to be a rebranded Scheppach HF50, but I believe Machine Mart ensures a slightly better item quality. Pros: The most important thing is that the work table surface is perfectly flat: I have tried to find any faults but ended up with an unevenness max of 0.3mm. This is absolutely great and I did not expect this sort of quality! The motor is very powerful, fully extended 1/2 inch round bits will route pine without any lowering of the speed The lifting mechanism is quite precise, and comfortable, and can be locked to the desired height (beware, locking will move the routing bit about 1mm to the right - so triple-check your set-up before powering the tool!) Speed control is smooth, buttons well designed. Cons: The most serious problem is with the fence. This is complete, utter rubbish. It is not square, it cannot be set up flat, it is too short, and locking bolts also are too short, uncomfortable and frequently fall inside the machine. After 2 days of attempts to use it - I just got rid of that and made my own fence 1.2m - hardwood plywood: 1 meter long, 13cm high: perfectly square to the table top and flat. It works great now! The bottom of the main body unit has got a plastic cover. Unfortunately, there is no attachment to suck the dust away from inside - hence (BE CAREFUL!) there is a very high risk of the machine catching fire. Get rid of that plastic cover as soon as possible and hoover it regularly! Check other reviews with lovely photos of the already burnt machines. It is a very serious design fault and should not be CE-marked. Mitre attachment is terribly unreliable - do not use it. No matter how you tighten the knob - it will change the angle while you push the stock and therefore ruin your project. But overall? Not a bad idea, but needs some extra thought and a few, rather easy modifications. The entire fence needs immediate redesigning, as at this price we could expect a full aluminium cast with replaceable MDF sacrificial pads. Some sort of extractor attachment to the engine bay would sort out the fire risk associated with the wood dust collection inside. Does the job perfectly - but only after building the quality jig fence. Therefore, I consider it a very pricey unit. So far, to bring it to my desired specs and intended use, I had to spend an extra £50 (small, 18mm plywood sheet, larger knobs and feather boards (thank you, Amazon), a few extra long M6 bolts, washers, and some wood glue. Jig making - approx 4h. The flat surface is a big winner for me, though.

The assembly instructions are useless. Thanks to Machinery House I got English instructions but I am still struggling to complete the assembly. I had the router for over 2 months and still can’t use the fuc###% thing

Thank you for your video. You have saved me from buying this piece of equipment. It looks like I will have to buy something few times more expensive :)

Thanks for presenting your knifes. Equally relevant today, as it was 11 years ago. As a Norwegian, I feel obliged to have one Norwegian hunting knife, perhaps best to call it a bushcraft knife, since I have never hunted in my life. It dates from my days as a scout leader in Molde, in the 1980s. These days it just sits in a drawer. Otherwise, I use only Swedish knives from Morakniv. These include a 106C and a hook knife, for woodcarving. For more general woodworking, I use an inexpensive Basic for most things. It gets replaced regularly. For more delicate work I have a Purple Pro Precision.

I didn't find your video until a couple of years after I bought an HF50. However, I totally agree with every point that you make. Setting up the HF50 became so problematic, that I "outsourced" the production of kitchen drawers, that I had originally intended to make using this machine. This was my last Scheppach purchase. I bought several machines after I retired, intending to have carpentry and woodworking as a hobby. Now, five - six years later, I am gradually giving all of these machines away or recycling them. In some cases, replacement machines are being bought. Most of these are made by Bosch.

Thank you!!I was thinking of buying one,but i think not,very useful info👍

Шепаш это дерьмо не покупайте Деньги псу под хвост

thank You for this video... Its Scheppach... made in Germany but from chinees parts... Do You have some alternative what to buy ? Thank You Pavel

Thank you so much for preventing me from buying this. I was about to order and then watched your review.

You just saved me some money, thanks!

Så smart! Tack för att du delade med oss.

Thank for your advise.

Brilliant ! Thank you.... 👍

Thanks for sharing that method.

short and sweet, easy to watch, thank you!

I remember these being pretty small when packing for a patrol exceeding 5 days. They were also not that comfortable when loaded with a lot of weight. Guys used to walk bent right over on the first couple of days of a long patrol. They were strong though.

Thanks for sharing your impressions on this router table - you provided a really concise overview of your experience with it. Many thanks.

Thank you for the review, you saved my money :)

What do you expect for less than 200€? I have these machine and it is more than ok.

Can you plane off the Swiss accent with that bench? ;) maybe with a good Hobel...

You have great ideas here! Where did you get those one-sided clamps? I've never seen those before.

Thank you for this honnest review!

Anyone here held on to Dankie Tannie Sakkie and their contents?

I knew that a cast-iron topped router table WITH router for only $500 had to be too good to be true. I was hoping that this wasn't the case, but you've confirmed my suspicions.

South African back pack , similar to south African hunters pack. At 1:45 the little snug areas on the side pockets what are the suggested/other uses? Anyone? Thanks in advance.

Thank you.

If you use the extensions, the miter gauge won't even go in. I suppose you could spend time trying to align them, but not sure if that's even possible. Haven't figured out how to extract dust since you could fit your head in the opening for the vacuum hose and can't find any adapter for it. So that's also useless.

Love what you did here, compared to other tabletop workbenches this is way smarter. 👍

It's looking like buying a set of plans and making a table would be better - with a lift would be better - Woodgears.CA and I buildit.CA both have good sets of plans for just a few dollars. No point at all buying a ready made integrated unit for that sort of money when you could get the same quality or better by chopping up some heavy ply and using an old router. I have a cheap and nasty Ozito Router that would work - all the plastic plunge router parts start breaking soon after use but the body and motor are OK.

You saved my few hundred dollars. I was so curious how a metal top router table included router can be so cheap. Thank you.

This is a great short video demonstrating the use and load of this pack. Thanks.

I purchased one of these and i agree fully with your review, firstly the fence was straight one side off square the other side and trying to push timber through it would hit the left hand bottom edge, took it back and they said the plastic fitting was not square and you could put some washers on one side to straighten it out which i did, then put a bit in to do a small rabbit and it chewed the timber up and stopped the machine and found the screws that hold the motor was loose so i stripped the machine down used locktite for all the screws and adjusted a few things put it all back together, 4 hours work again got back to routing found one side of the bit was higher then the other then tried to get the bit out with holding the plastic locker on the side to lock it to unscrew the nut but it kept spinning and the stop did not work so had to get a ring spanner and tap it with a hammer and finally loosened the nut. This was the final straw as i piled it all into the car and took it back and said i want a refund which that did, I said i have worked on this for 5 hours to do 10 min routing and said its the worse piece of rubbish i have ever seen and i work with machinery. Beware do not buy.

Heres tanother video detailing the kit...Dankie. ruclips.net/video/tg3FNsSMZIU/видео.html

Thanks very much - you just saved me A$500

Thank you for your thorough review of this sad machine. It saved me from considering buying a used one.

I got mine pretty sharp, usually I don’t mess with knives with stainless steel blades but I actually like this one, bought it mainly cause it was a Kabar but I noticed getting it pretty darn sharp was actually very easy with a ceramic rod.

Great idea with the lanyard

I am considering this Chinese clone. www.hbm-machines.com/producten/houtbewerking/houtfreesmachines/hbm-40-houtfreesmachine Has a good review. HBM Machines sells the Scheppach also, but you see also a difference in weight. Scheppach weighs 22 kilos and HBM 32 kilos, so maybe the heavier weight makes it more fit for its job?

Thank you for this review! It kept me from buying this machine!

Make new video again but with better camera and more details. Very nice bag.

thanks for your review

Fortunately when I got mine for free from cabelas it came with a free sharpening in store and didn’t have to worry about the dull blade

4/2019. Just bought one. Not impressed at all. When locking the router to insert/remove cutters, the shaft rotated. Completely buggered. Am rebuilding with larger ''Locking mating surface, and better tolerance". Should have known better. Do yourself a favour, and leave yours in their shop. I will make a photographic record and post later.

Thank you for taking the time and making this video

Thanks

Thank you for this honnest review!
