If you want a router mainly for table mounting, then consider the Triton TRA001, which will change bits above the table so no need to go under the table for anything.

With a router table, sanding machine and scrollsaw all in the same location within reaching distance of a plug socket. The safety of an NVR switch is well known, but is it possible to use one NVR plug connected to the mains socket and then to an extension lead with 3/4 outlets to the three...

I saw this video recently and wondered if anyone here has made one of these for their router table? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIzyEHZz3z0&t=195s Malcolm

It could make a short wall in your living room?

You were luck it wasn't worse. Hope all gets better soon and the tools are fixed back in a stronger way.

Nice to visit you again today Glynne and to spend time chatting about the wonderful world of your workshop. Many more tips obtained and a chance to get 'hands on' with that superb new box with the brass inlay. Such a pleasure to see such workmanship and that box will certainly be a family...

Another nice box, but if the voids are that size, is it OK to fill them, but perhaps be more adventurious with a couple of colours, streaking them somewhat? Or even adding itens, such as pebbles etc.? Malcolm

Thats a superb box Glynne. The resin infill is the sort of thing I am about to get into, so perhaps I can pinch some ideas and at the same time, take you up on the offer of Router info. Malcolm ..............the box is a present for someone who follows me ........................ do you mean a...

The comments prompted me to look up 'stringing' and I found this video. Seems that it can be done with tools to hand. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxmlFDH7UBE

Hi Glenn. welcome to the forum. It all sounds very interesting and certainly something that would be of interest to many of the members, including myself. I saw an old vidoe of some steam driven tools years ago and it was facinating, so hope to see you on here again soon with lots of photos...

Thanks Roger, Thats about it. This morning I found a video of the Kreg Router plate for the Tritio TRA001 and it show the hole, just like yours. He has another video somewhere showing it working, but the position is more like the position I am thinking of...

Yes, Steve's video is one, but the one I was referring to, the hole was a few inches beyond the plate a little closwer to the fence position, with with a vac attached. They both seem do the same thing, but perhaps it's more trial and error to find the best position. I had thought that a few...

I saw a video some time ago, showing a router table that had an additional hole in the top just past the cutter. About 6" or so, to act as an additional dust extractor in addition to the one over the cutter. As usual, I cannot find it again and wondered if anyone had information about the best...

As general interest, do many inserts bow as a result of heavy ruters. It would be helpful to know these things. Malcolm

As it's over 2 hours drive, I only go when there's a show on, but mist the last two. If you can make one of the shows it would be good to meet up. Malcolm

Looks a bit like Yew?

Thanks for the kind comments. I generally get a load of timber when going to timber merchants. Sykes in Tamworth was the last lot, but had a load from Yandles when I went there last year. Need to get some more purpleheart as I've run out now, just bits left over. Still have lots of projects to...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Yes, thats purpleheart ......... quite often goes darker, particularly if left frying too long. Malcolm

Had a few quiet months when things other than bandsaw box making kept cropping up, as well as holidays. So thought it was about time to start again. I took a shot of these latest ones today, which have still to be finished off and handles fitted, but it shows I am 'still at it'. I was going...

He sure has a lot of talent at his age. Star of the future.
