Easy to build, versatile router table has 32 in. wide and 24 in. deep dimensions. Router table plan dimensions can be changed to suit your requirements. The router table insert is offset towards front of table where most routing is performed. Plan also provides use of rear of table when a larger table surface is required. A crosscut sled allows safe routing at right angles to table. To eliminate table sag, router table is a torsion box assembly. T-tracks provide fastening + adjustment of fence.


Router table plan includes these features:

optimized table height
large table dimensions
easy to build, using standard lumber
no table sag - uses torsion box 
versatile fence on table top
excellent dust collection
router access from top or bottom
router removable for hand held use
adjust router bit height from top

crosscut sled for safety + accuracy

A Veritas circular router base plate kit mounts a router. This router plate kit has features such as rigidity, ease of adapting and installing a router, and can be removed from beneath the table. The low cost router plate kit, very good directions for mounting a router, and a small footprint (9 in. diameter) plate are important design factors. A router of your choice can easily be substituted.
