Nice solution very clearly described in very nice English! Definitely better than my Danish! Well done. I wish you a lot of fun with your future projects! All the best, Rob in Switzerland
Hi Rob - thanks for your nice words :) - I have already used the router setup for many small projects, and it works just fine :) - I actually use my channel here to try improve my English - so really thankful for your feedback... and guess what: My Swiss German or France is probably as good as your Danish ;-)
Thank you for your feedback :) Glad you can use the idea for you own project ... and my the router mod still works really fine for the small projects I am running.
Others have probably suggested using a small cordless drill to lift the router. But maybe not. I think I would try it to replace the ratchet. Thumbs up.
I made a similar router table for a similar router too but on the electrical side rather than adding a separate starter switch, I changed the wiring for the table saw to add a socket to plug the router into the table saw and added a switch to change over between powering the saw or the router and used the same press switch/emergency stop
cool build one change that you could do is to change the "adjusting nut" to an Allen socket bolt (you can get "coupling nuts" to join the all thread and bolt ) also change the center plate bolts to the same Allen size to be able to use the same tool for simplicity again nice job !! have Fun from Oklahoma
Hi "Oklahoma" :) - thanks for your nice words ... I originally planed to use Allen sockets bolts - but it was a Sunday afternoon build, and the local "bolt pusher" had closed .. I did promise myself to change to Allen - but since it kind of worked well anyway I decided to keep it for now.
that's the way it works sometimes!! as a retired farmer i have an old card file cabinet full of bolts and such course we are 45 min away from any major store :)@@thimtools7538
How did you get the springs out? Does having the springs out make the router plunge further? Or come through the table further than with the spring in?
Initially I took out the spring in the router - It doesn't affect the plunge, since the plunge it controlled by the plunge dept wheel. Only advantage is it moves more freely. When I converted the router to a fixed table-router I mounted the spring again, since I needed the spring load to get more precise adjustment of the bit height.
Jeg har ikke lavet andet end at kigge på rigtig dyre løsninger det sidste stykke tid... Et smut i BilTema og 40kr fattigere :D Så er den sku ordnet, kæft det er godt tænkt! TAK! Kræver lidt workarounds med min gamle Bosch, men det skal nok blive godt :)
The best lift I've seen so far.
Thanks - why do it hard - when you can do it simple :)
clearly havent seen many then

Really good job! And very similar to my router, so I can pretty much copy you… Thanks 👍
Thank you for your feedback :)

Thanks its given me some good ideas 😊
Always great when someone can use my ideas to work from... thanks 🙂

Thanks for feedback :) - and yes a cordless drill to lift would be faster .. maybe I will try find a 10,8V for the purpose ...

Sounds like a good idea, too - I anyway had the extra electrical switch in my workshop - so it was fast and simple to install :)

Ja det behøver ikke være super svært - som vi Ingeniører gerne siger "Keep it Simple" :o) .... og har man en gammel fræser at ligge alligevel.
Fantastisk arbejde !
Tak for kommentar - og den virker faktisk stadig super godt :)
Very nice design. You could also print an insert without a hole to prevent sawdust from falling on the router while using the table saw
Thanks - and thank you for your suggestion :) .. and you are right - a good idea 👍
cool idea. thank you.
Thanks :)
