@@jkasukurthy Thank you for your comment. I'm glad this was helpful for you. And congrats on getting into woodworking! So many wonderful things to do and learn. Cheers.
Best video on the subject. Thanks for a calming voice tone and no "uptalk", no clowning, no unnecessary chit chat, no kids in the frame and above all NO music. Thank you, you have saved me from having to spend $$$'s on a Kreg piece or one of unknown quality and possibly waste of money from Ali Express. Also, material list is much appreciated.

Thank you! Such kind words. All the extra stuff in videos is so annoying! What kind of how-to video should I do next?

I have looked at many many KZread videos on how to build a router table and this really is the best. Simple and cheap and bonus that its for the same Ryobi trim router I have. I like your method of suspending the trim router. No plexiglass to buy and cut etc. I wished you had turned on the router at the end to demonstrate that it will stay in place but it’s not a deal breaker because I’m still gonna build mine just as you did. Thanks for posting.
You did just fine. Sometimes I see these guys show off all their expensive tools but truth be told, most guys in garages have what you have. I do. Thanks for sharing.

@@downrightdutchdesigns4711 clamps, crimpers, gloves, brushes and hand tools are great picks. I also have their 3 ton low profile jack for SoundWave (toaster) that's amazing.
First thing is first, eye protection is always a must when woodworking. 🤔 but good video

You are absolutely correct. This was from my foolish days. I basically sleep with my 3M goggles now.
Sponsored by Ryobi. Lol!!
