Great job and some great ideas!
thanks, glad to hear.
Amazing freehand routing but wouldn't it have been easier to use some straight edge guides? That workbench with fold-up power tools is GENIUS! Sweet magnetic vacuum connection! Very nice video, well done. All the best, Rob in Switzerland
Thanks. It would have absolutely been better to run the router along a straight edge. Hindsight.
Would love a video on your vac system set up.. want to know more about the pull out/pop in vac idea showed in this video
I have two videos about the work bench build that covers the vacuum system build. Please check them out!
I've installed two of those Bosch router plates because I got them for $15 each. For that price they are OK but they would never be my first choice for a router plate. The bevels along the perimeter are far to aggressive and all those extra holes collect wood chips. I'm going to fill in the unused holes with epoxy.
Yep, it was definitely one of the cheaper options and you know how that goes.
Like your workbench layout and that the tools fold down. Great planning, however, I think you should have used two layers of plywood for the top. Extra strength.
Thanks! Yes, 2 layers would be twice as strong for sure.
Love your setup! You’re good at using your router in freehand mode. Next time set a a straight edge with a couple of clamps to guide you. You will save time and get a more accurate cut.
Thanks you! I though about that afterward haha.
Like that work bench,im going to build myself one
Thanks. Glad to hear.
Excelente router table Well presented and low fund outlay Thanks
Glad you like it!
Чувак, чтобы ровно резать фрезером, закрепи упор струбцинами и веди по ним.
Yep, I should have used a straight edge.
Great work station and informative video. Keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!
You’re the master of freehand routing haha. That’s usually disastrous for most of us. Love the workstation and your videos. Thank you 🙏
Thanks 👍
Nice setup!
Thank you!
Just some input,for those WITHOUT a nice band saw,wood hole saws Will work good😂😂
Good call!
Outstanding. I’ve followed your build, bought your plans and, let me tell you, your job is outstanding. Thanks for sharing
Wow, that's great! Thanks for watching!
I enjoy your design and attention to detail!
1 piece of constructive criticism would be to edit down the actual building process, for example I don't need to see the entire process of routing out for the router plate. I would rather enjoy a clip of you speaking "this is what I'm about to do" then a "this is how it turned out", or "here's this issue I need to figure out a solution to" with a far quicker time lapse.
It also has the benefit of getting more of your personality during the video.
Thanks for the input, I have considered that also. It is still very much a learning process.
Great job but that banjo music was excruciating
Folk music, its not for everyone...
I for one liked the music. It’s 10x better than most music on videos.
I liked the music!
Very nice!
Thank you!
Get some template tape and your straight edges will be laser straight but you are pretty good freehand
Thank you. Afterwards I thought I should have clamped a straight edge and used that as a guide. Hindsight right?
Was there a specific reason why you couldn’t just extend the t track all the way to the edge of the table so you could slide the hardware for the clamps? Btw you are a genius! Love the table, keep up the great work. God bless
Thank you for the feed back. I didn't consider that, it makes total sense!
💯💯💯
👍
The insert plate is installed wrong. It should be oriented
so the long side of the plate is facing you.
That was the only way it would fit in the small space leaving enough room for the t-track. Thanks for watching!
Routers are specifically built to run against a reference edge. Why would you not use one at all?
When making the recess for the T track?
@@philliprebornWhen routing out the recess for the router plate AND the t-track. It was all done freehand. 🫣
Hallo, kindly send me the plan and measurement of the working table,I would like to make one for myself.Thank you in advance.
Link for the plans is in the description.
Great addition to the table...
I just ordered a set of plans for this table.
Couple of questions:
1-i know your router has an on/off switch, but is it a “trigger” style (that is to say..., press it and the tool is activated, release it, and the tool shuts off)..., and if so, how did you “rig” it...?
Power cord into a junction box & duplex receptacles, with a separate switch that was re-wired into the tool switch...?
2-what is the flex tubing for the vacuum exhaust, and where can it be sourced...?
Thank you.
Thank you! My router is only operated by the on off switch on the side of the tool so no rigging was required. Here is an amazon link for the tubing amzn.to/3gmYl5i
@@phillipreborn ok great thank you.
Have you added any sealers to protect your work surface?
Great question. Yes! I put at least two coats of a satin finish water based polyurethane. I love the water based option because there is almost no odor and it cleans up with soap and water.
Very impressive, wondering where you sander is????
Thanks! Yes, it would have been nice to squeeze that in somewhere.
Did the T- Track come with the router plate? I followed the link to the plate, but didn’t see the t-track. Maybe I missed something, if not, could you maybe add a link for the t-track and tightening screws? Very new at this, but absolutely trust your process and results.
The T track was purchased separately.

@@phillipreborn thank you for that info. I am about a week out from beginning my build and this helps.
Come on guy, screw drivers aren’t chisels (maybe I’m wrong?)! Great table though, wishing I had a garage...my tools go on a portable table when I need them and that is bush league at best 😀
You are absolutely correct, they do not make good chisels even sharpened. I ordered a set after this video..👍
Send me The prints for that table,id like to build it!!!
Thanks. There is a link to the plans in the video description.
