• 1. For what type of work would I use a router table?

  Anyone who uses a router in wood working will soon notice that when processing small workpieces, it can only be used with an increased risk of accidents and in some cases is no longer possible at all. This is where a router table comes into play: Here you can place even the smallest workpieces and always carry out the routing work extremely precisely - in comparison to the freehand guided router. In addition, you can easily produce identical pieces with consistent quality. A router table not only contributes to work safety but also extends the working area.

• 2. What diffrent types of router table are there?

  There are many different types of router tables. They range from the small portable table top router tables such as the Trend CRT-MK3, to router tables that are designed to be a permenent part of a workshop set-up like the KREG PRS 1045. Larger workshops may even consider having a undertable spindle router such as the RUWI Table Router.

• 3. What should I look out for when buying a router table?

  First and foremost you should pay attention to the stability of the table and the high quality of the individual components. Both lead to more work safety and a better work result. Make sure that the work surface is sufficiently large and stable. If the table top is too light, unnecessary vibrations can occur, which can have a negative effect on thework  result. We also recommend table legs that are height-adjustable in order to adapt the table optimally to the floor. A safety switch on the front of the router table is also an important work safety criterion. This means that the router is not directly connected to the mains supply, but is supplied with power via the integrated mains connection on the table. This ensures user-friendly and safe switching on and off. The most important accessories for router tables should also be of good quality: Rip fences, angular fences, pressure combs and also an extraction system for the chips produced should be available.THe router can be a dangerous machine when not used correctly, that is why we always recommend usind components fron proven companys. Often apparent savings are not worth in in the long run.
