Added a router table to my RIDGID r4514. Some scrap wood a $20 router table insert plate, and some shelf pins and I made a fantastic router table attachment. RIDGID's fence design is great for this application because it incorporates t-track on all sides so it's very easy to add on an auxiliary fence system with t bolt. (Or in my case bolt that I ground down into t bolts)
materials list:
router table insert - the one I bought off Amazon is no longer available but all the cheap ones look the same except for the paint jobs. (also had to re drill the mounting holes in the one I had)
here a comparable one:

@ericliddle7556 2 года назад

I like it! Great use of the extendable table. Only thought that could be problematic is dust/shavings build up. If you made the fence a box you cold easily attach a vacuum port to hook it up to a dust collector. Only feedback I'd have. The set up is great!

@TheCandolFamily 2 года назад

Hey that's a great idea, I've been thinking about something similar. I didn't bother thinking about dust collection because I have a small space and don't have any dust collection system set up. I am moving to a bigger space and hope to set something up. Your box idea with some sort of vac connect on the back should work very well. Thanks for the tip. Cheers

@reactorleak7432 2 года назад

I’m really new to woodworking and I have this exact table saw and I plan to adapt this myself. That being said in reference to the dust, couldn’t you just make the equivalent of a cover to put on there when not in use? Instead of making a spot to lift with the finger, just raise the router to “pop” it

Creative, simple and extremely functional. This was a timely find for myself as well ... I'm picking up the Delta variant of the Ridgid R4560 next month and I wanted to do exactly what you just did in this video. About the only difference between what you did and what I'm going to probably do is have a laminate surface on the addition. Other than that, pretty much on board with your design. Thanks much for sharing your design and instructions, it will save me a certain amount of trial and error. Cheers and good luck with your saw and router table.

@TheCandolFamily 2 года назад

Thanks, Laminates a great idea. I wanted to do that for my build but was at the beginning of the pandemic and was too much of a hussle to go out. So I used what I had. Good luck with the build. Going to be no friction with the laminate

@portlandtwowheels1872 2 года назад

I did have a question about this. I don't exactly want to drill into the table saw but I was thinking...is there a way to make a dado/groove or something so this fits in between? I think I might try your method since I have the same exact table saw. Unsure if I should just screw the 3/4 plywood or mdf together or glue them though.

@ryanm2214 2 года назад

Sweet! Recently got the same saw and have been considering doing this so I am just curious... why not extend the saw plate out all the way and make a larger birch router plate to insert?

@TheCandolFamily 2 года назад

Hey thanks for the suggestion. For larger pieces I switch the fence to the other side of the router and it gives a lot more surface on the table to work with.

@waseemtouma4180 2 года назад

Thanks for the video! I have a similar saw and was wondering about locking the fence when it is on the plywood. There is a groove on the back end of table top/extension where the fence locks in. Did you cut the groove out of the plywood? How does it lock into place when it is on the plywood section? Thank you!

@TheCandolFamily 2 года назад

Hello there. No I didn't have to cut any grooves. Just cut the ply to the same length as the table top. It doesn't interfere with the fence. Locks down just the same as anywhere else on the table.

@jimaboughoche6191 3 года назад

What size and where did you get the bolts for the fence?this is exactly what I need. Thanks for the tutorial.

@TheCandolFamily 3 года назад

Hey glad you found it helpful. To be honest I stole the pins from an old book shelf. I did link some pins from Amazon in the description that are identical. One of my pins wasn't lined up correctly and I had to drag the hole. So I used epoxy to set them all after(while installed in the saw). If you have some it will make it much more durable. Good luck with your version

@derekprimeau2443 2 года назад

Just bought this table saw and I think I am going to use this great idea, but one question does the table saw still fold up for storage with the rotor attachment left in?

@jamesrowe6389 2 года назад

I have not made this yet but I would think it would interfere with fold up, but simply remove and store elsewhere when moving the saw. Love this idea. I will be working on making this this weekend.

I have your same router and bought the same metal plate to make my router table. Unfortunately only 2 holes on my plate match with the router holes🤔 Did you have the same problem? How did you secure your router to the plate? Thanks

@danieltodtfeld4562 3 года назад

This is exactly what I want to do. Any chance you could link to the pieces you used? Also- did you cut the plywood square or have it beveled at all so it sits in easier?

@TheCandolFamily 3 года назад

Hey thanks for watching, sure I'll update the description and include my materials. Yes I did square it up. I figured that the 2 pieces of plywood I laminate together wouldn't be perfectly square to each other and would need to be cut if I wanted all 4 sides to be perfectly flush with the table sides and fence rail. Plus if I messed up the alignment of the router insert I could correct that when I trimmed. Instead of putting a bevel or groove on the edge to rest on the fence rails, I used metal shelf pins to line up and hold it flush with the table surface. Thought it might get in the way of the fence sliding over the insert. I did break the top edge with some sand paper just so it matched the edges of the rest of the table. Thanks for the question. Hit me up if you have more when u go make one for your saw.

@okayusa6608 3 года назад

Did you have to ajust the fence for the saw? I bought the same saw and have trouble getting the fence to line up straight.

@TheCandolFamily 3 года назад

I'd actually bought it second hand. Not sure if the first guy did or not, but I have noticed that there are 2 spring clips on the front of the fence that if not engaged properly throws the fence out of wack. I always push forward on the springs when I put the fence on Maybe that might help you. Also the fence isn't attached to anything at the front untill it's clamped, so it's best to hold the front face and only the first couple inches of the fence to slide it over.

I tried this many years ago and found my saw just had too much sag on that extension. This is a newer model that might not have the same problem.

@TheCandolFamily 3 года назад

What model was it? Seems really sturdy to me. My thought is if it can handle half a sheet of plywood at 30", a couple of pounds at 15 should be ok.

@dfs7979 3 года назад

@@TheCandolFamily Oh I wasn't suggesting the weight was an issue. What I had going on with my R4510 was the sliding table would bow downward slightly given enough weight. This wasn't a problem for small pieces but for stiles and rails and certainly raised panels I'd get inconsistent results depending on how hard I would push to keep the the work piece flat. My Ridgid just died the other day so when my Metabo arrives I'll look at doing this again but this time using an adjustable angled support from a cross member instead of hanging it from the rack and pinion rails. This way I can dial everything in to be on the same plane and can still adjust the fence.

Fairly compact which is Nice ru-vid.comUgkxXh-4_3-ZT1fFWP91ZV7iVqzElr0lEb-a I did get an Incra Miter Gauge which takes some setup as well.
