For a long time, I wanted to build a benchtop router table for a small workshop.
I decided to build a benchtop router table. I have wanted one for some time especially one I could use in a small workshop. I have been using different types of router guides but there are moments a router table would be more suitable and easier to use. You can easily mount the router table to a benchtop using clamps. I made 3 T-tracks - 2 for a table fence or a push fence and one for a crosscut jig as well. The tracks can be used also for hold-down clamps. As an addition, I also made a dust port.
BENCHTOP ROUTER TABLE | ROUTER TABLE DIY
I started by cutting 2 Plywood desks (40 x 30) for the router table. Glued them together and additionally fixed them with few screws. Then I measured the center of the desk and drilled 4 holes to fix the router and a center hole for router bits. I measured and routed 3 T-tracks using a router dado jig - 2 for a table fence or a push fence and one for a crosscut jig. Then I cut several MDF stips on a circular saw and glued them over the routed dados to form a T-track. Once finished I started building the router fence using plywood and MDF. Cut off the centers to make space for router bits, glued them together, and reinforced them with additional plywood supports. I also built a dust port and glued it to the table fence. To fix the table fence to the table I used plywood sliders and wing nuts.
Tips:
- Be careful when building the T-tracks. They should not protrude from the table
- When gluing MDF strips in the T-tracks be cautious of glue excess. It should not get in the track
