This may be old hat for some, but I am REALLY gonna put a router in my BT3's router table. I also have the Accessory Kit. I need some tips from been-there-done-that types.
I just picked up the Triton MOF001KC -- based on FW's review of table-intended routers (Jan/Feb 2007). Now: will that unit fit in there and still let me change bits from the top? Most router tables, purchased or shop-built, seem to mount to large rectangular baseplates. These baseplates then go into the router table.
Our BT3 has the round hole, 4 screw mounts, and other accesories. I would like to use the BT3's sliding table and rip fence for the router, but I would also like to maintain the Triton's ability to change bits from the top directly.
Comments, anyone? Am I pushing the BT3's router table too far? I could get what I want just by a hole in a piece of plywood, but floor space is a premium, so I'd rather use the BT3's router table. Help!
