I've recently reviewed the Dewalt table saw I'm using in this video. Check it out here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ap1-yI-DZZmTkZs.html
Possibly one of the most valuable and practical KZread videos I’ve watched certainly this year. Great build especially when used in conjunction with the table saws sliding guide rail. Absolute game changer. I know what I’ll be doing the first dry day I get. Great content

This is a couple of steps beyond genius! I am an absolute beginner and have the smaller DeWalt saw-have been trying to figure out how to extend the left side of the table a bit-so I can work with larger pieces of wood. Thanks for sharing how I can eliminate one more piece of equipment-and how to make the most of what I have. I keep seeing videos where folks have gone from basic setups to elaborate and beautiful out feed tables, assembly tables, and separate router and mitre saw stations-that are well beyond anything I can afford-or that I will ever have room for. I recently decided that I would focus on the videos of craftsmen making incredible things with the most basic equipment. Then I stumbled across your mistakes beginners make-followed up by this! Thanks again-you have helped get me motivated again!

Well done. Talk about making the most out of what you've got. This is brilliant. And yes, using a router in a table is so much easier than trying to do it by hand. It can also be a good alternative to a dado stack. Dados and rabbets are very doable on a router table. You can even find off-sized router bits to compensate for the various plywood thicknesses. The router table gives more ways to skin that cat, to coin a phrase.

I was hesitant to purchase an open box carseat but it came in excellent condition and saved $35. Box was damaged as stated before I purchased it, but the kzread.infoUgkxIxQe7nPH74g_xtI5NgiE9-zpGNkfgovw car seat looks brand new and I don't think it was ever used. I will update of course if I have any issues with this carseat but I don't think I will. Also it is surprisingly lightweight, the handle feels secure unlike my previous EvenFlo that was gifted to us. Love it !

Very well done on the video editing and overall composition. However I will admit I almost came through the screen to grab your hand at 1:17...gripping the board directly across from where you were stabbing with a chisel had me very worried for your safety! Please use clamps next time!

Very clever idea. I'd like to try it with the fixed based of my DeWalt router set, but it's not the compact router that you used, and it won't fit as nicely as yours did. However I think it will work nicely against the guide side where there is more space. What was the thickness of the board you used for the top plate? Also, when you did your circle cut, did you drill a hole into your top plate for the pivot?
@sumeraybuilds
6 ай бұрын
I'd imagine you'd fit a bigger router in there, it should be easy enough to check before starting the build. The thickness of the board is 17mm, I ran a peice through a thicknesser to get that. For the circle I did drill a whole through the main board. I don't actually use that feature much. I more wanted to highlight that it's possoble using this set up. Hope your build goes well!

@@sumeraybuilds I was hoping it would be a standard (imperial) size, since I don't have a thicknessing machine. Not that I wouldn't like a planar, but one of the reasons I was hoping to get away with a table saw router extension, is because my workspace is a tiny shed, and I don't have space for more machines. I do need to make a couple big circular insets (5.5"), and am thinking that your trick, plus some router bushings will do the trick to make a guide for the exterior part of that circle (provided I can make the router table base first, to make the template.)

NEVER feed the work piece on the right side of the router bit. The router bit rotates in a clockwise direction in normal operation. When the router is inverted, the bit rotation is counter-clockwise. Feeding the work piece to the left side of the bit is the proper way to use a router table because the work piece is fed into the counter-clockwise bit rotation. If you notice in the video, feeding the workpiece on the right side of the router bit requires the workpiece to be moved towards the operator. This means the workpiece is being moved into the bit rotation. Another thing that needs the be pointed out, the thickness of the material used to make the router top will reduce the travel of the router bit. This issue will be noticed when using flush trim bits in the small trim router. It is recommended that a thinner piece of material be used OR the mounting area under the top be milled out to obtain more cutting depth of the router.

When the router is upside down you feed from right to left. If router upright push from left to right. However doing the other way is a climb cut that can leave a better finish but is tricky

This is fair, when I made this video I had about 30 subscribers and no idea what I was doing. I've updated the video description to give credit to the video that inspired this one.
Clever build, though watching your chisel work was cringe worthy. I see see this as convenient, the difficulty factor of using a palm router is overblown. They are small expressly for ease of manual manipulation. If one can not handle a palm router, get a bigger one. Your wobbly illustration of the challenges reminded me of the idiotic infomercials of inept people failing at fairly simple tasks.
