Quick suggestion for the levelling screws - add a nut to each bolt under the plate so that when the plate is set at level you can "lock" the bolt positions (I would guess that vibration from the router could/would cause the bolts to move if not locked)

@davidcurtis5398 7 месяцев назад

My router table has a 1 & 1/2 inch thick top (2 pieces of 3/4 plywood found in a dumpster where I used to work - so this is free) and I used a fixed router base and mounted it under the table top. I then ran a 3/4 inch bit up through the table top and had a center hope that exactly matched up with the router base and the fence. I eventually cut a hole with the largest router bit I have and made a recess in the top of the table for different sizes of wood plates for different diameter of router bits. The plates are a snug fit but if and when they get loose I have room to use a screw to keep them in place. I can not afford a router lift that costs more than the router I have. I like the use of the epoxy to mount the "T" track. I will have to get some. I have never used this glue before and I have been wood working since I was 8 years old and I am 76 now. Time to try the epoxy glue I think... I have a box like yours, then I built another box that is on wheels (I have a cabinet saw that I move at times) and the router box sets on the second box and the second box has drawers in it for storage. I love those metal inserts and use them all of the time - love - love - love...

@DeafMaker 2 года назад

this looks brilliant, defo on my list of things to do, the solution to the router plate holes is genius, been putting of buying one of those because of mismatch the holes. For the dust extraction I have seen other RU-vidrs put a 45 degree 3mm square panel to make the volume of the dust extraction box smaller and improve suction, but yours looks good enough. Thanks so much for sharing your ideas.

@CasualDIY 2 года назад

Thank you. With the dust extraction I was thinking of installing PVC piping as a permanent part of the fence. But it actually made no sense for my dust extraction set up to do that. As I'm not planning to make any changes to my dust extraction this way seems to be more that sufficient and simple. And its not in the way. Although I'm still thinking of how to sort out the dust extraction from the box where the router sits, got few ideas we will see what will come out of them.

Hello Thomas. Your video is absolutely what I needed. I too have the Rage 5S and am trying to adapt it to take my trend router. I’m reasonably new to woodworking and I’ve tried several ideas but failed miserably each time. So I’m going with you on this one. Thomas, you mentioned that you were going to add your plans to the video, and I wonder if I could please access them. Anyway I’m really grateful for your help by way of the video and shall be watching many more. Stay well and thank you. Regards Richard Green PS now retired, not tired and ready to rev up my machines - with a little help and advice.

@CasualDIY 2 года назад

Woodworking is a great hobby, it releases our inner creativity 👍 In the end I have not made the plans as it seems the saws vary slightly in dimensions. However I had many requests for it so I make try to make some plans but the measurements you will have to check for your saw so it all fits correctly. I'll try to make them by the middle of next week. Once they are ready I'll will let everyone know through my Instagram, Facebook page and community post here on RU-vid 👍

@theswime945 2 года назад

Thanks as ever Tomasz- hopefully my next project (just as it looks like we're going into lockdown again...) Re. the router insert plate- there are currently (December 2021) some available on eBay for about £14 that measure 280mmW x 118mmD x 8mmH, so smaller than yours. They have two sets of pre-drilled holes to accommodate a router base plate- the smaller set fits the Katsu palm trimmer/router perfectly (I know, but I'm only doing light stuff...). Hope this might be helpful to someone. Cheers, Simon.

Hi Tomasz. Greetings from Germany. I got my Rage 5s at x-mas from my parents and my parents in law. I'm looking forward to assemble it and build up my new workspace. Your reviews and videos had an great influence for my desicion to go for the rage 5s. Now my answer to your question. I'm going to build up a new workspace in the next months. In Germany the price for wood and everything like plywood is also increasing insanely. So I definitely upsilcle some stuff that I have and also I will use some wood from euro pallets or something else. It's realy insane. Some construction wood has increased some around 750% in price.

@CasualDIY 2 года назад

@carloduroni5629 2 года назад

Considering that you already made an almost-fully enclosed box, I'd suggest a dust-recovering solution seen elsewhere: a collecting tray under the router - large enough to intercept all the falling dust - and obviously a front closing panel for the box itself. P.S. I wish you had produced this video one year ago. It would've saved me a lot of work and material to build a self-standing router table which also takes a lot of my precious space. Sigh!

Great video and what a great idea using the table saw as a base for your router! Im work out of an 8 x6 shed so space is at a premium. One observation, do you think a small shampher on your router fence where it meets the table should be added, it'd give some of the dust somewhere to go?

Hi Tomasz, a larger hose might solve the small amount of dust escaping. Good project. Mike

@carloduroni5629 2 года назад

Wouldn't a larger hose reduce the suction force? Same volume of sucked air (depends on the hoover power) but "distributed" on a larger hose section.

@katabrontes 2 года назад

@@carloduroni5629 No. A larger hose would increase the flow volume and thus "sweep up" more dust. It's not about " suction force" ie the pressure reduction but the rate of flow which determines the effectiveness of dust extraction.

Hello , I really like this project and more generaly your channel, it's very supporting for people like me to see what we can do with affordable tools and passion . I own the rage 5 and I'm trying to realize the same device . Don't you have some bending issues with the extension due to the weight of the router table ? Because I do and only with the upper panel ... an other question : do you have some tips for ensuring the parallelism of the fence? Because mine seems to move a little bit when I block it ... Anyway thanks you for the video keep going !

@CasualDIY 2 года назад

Thank you. The router box sits on the metal pipe handles and its blotted to them so that was not an issue. However I have noticed that the top chipboard panel started to sag a bit which is strange as its supported by two board inside. I guess its because its a very old board and the strength is not there anymore.

@BusbyBiscuits 2 года назад

Most of my converted container workshop "furniture" (if you really want to call it that) has at least some recycled wood in it. Old tables, old beds, old shelving, old draws. Anything that looked like it might be useful I kept. I wouldn't recommend it as a general approach, as once you have accumulated all the "wood", it will just take up space until a project idea comes to mind. You also forget what you actually have, meaning that you have to rummage about in a pile of random of questionable wood to find something that "might" work. Be ruthless, only keep really big or good quality bits, recycle the rest of it.

@CasualDIY 2 года назад

Yes I know what you are saying. I do have a tendency to keep everything and in the end it just gets in the way. For one moment I thought I will end that but now looking at the prices of materials I think I will continue that for a little bit longer😂

Hi there Thomas Love your videos. I have question on this box. Do you move your table saw around with this box in place? I have long thought of putting a similar box but have always wondered, as i have to put my table in upright position, as i use my garage as my workshop. Can you still access handles and release clamp for moving saw around?

@CasualDIY 2 года назад

Hi, It's slightly more awkward but you cam reach the handles and move it around. I move it a lot in my workshop but in the unfolded position. If you decide to make this box, do at least one support leg. I tend to use my table saw now as a second bench 😅

No they are not screwed together. I was thinking of putting two clamps on each end of the table saw fence so the router fence would not move left to right. But been working with this setup (without the clamps) a bit now and the fence attachment I made from ply that goes over the table saw fence is so tight that the router fence doesn't move. So had no need for any fasteners yet. Although the table saw fence has got two holes in it already and initially I was thinking of using them to attach both fences together.

To be fair so fair not had massive issues with it as usually I just set it up and off I go. However I need to change it over to the front.

My locking paddle only seems to only push down to level rather than all the way to vertically down. Do you have any idea if it is adjustable?

@Agent.Bob58 2 года назад

Eureka! Found the issue, it was set up wrong from day one. The locking nut at the back of the fence seems to have been over tightened at the factory, just slackened it a few turns and the paddle goes all the way down rather than stopping halfway and fouling on the timber 👍

@@Agent.Bob58 hi sorry didn't see your question, however I don't think I would be much help with that 🤣 Glad you managed to sort it out 👍

Almost all the wood I use is recycled (I genuinely can't remember when I bought wood last). I wish I had the same table saw, I would have liked to have done this.

@CasualDIY 2 года назад

Yes recycling seems to be the right way at the moment and current prices. Its a solid table saw, not the best but in this price range I don't think you can pick up anything better (new)

Tomas where can I find plans for this project please?

@CasualDIY 2 года назад

Not made them yet. I think they will be done by the end of next week. I will let everyone know though my social media when they will be done.

What's the name of your " bad boys " for the adjustment screws?

What size of insert nuts and bolts did you use?

Now that is a question, can't remember to be honest.

Super idée mais pourquoi autant de vis puisque les pièces sont collées c'est comme si on mettait une ceinture avec une paire de bretelles sur son pantalon on met la ceinture où les bretelles mais rarement les deux

Just to be sure it will not fail or move👍
