Router accessory and longer rails

[Chadi]

Hello everyone. Second night on the forum after setting up my new BT3100. Already been cutting some wainscot for the bathroom. If someone could help out I would like to get more info on setting up a router on the BT as well as longer rails. I'm going to need longer rails when I get to the main part of the wainscot. Also have some window trim to rebuild so I'm going to need the router set up (preferably on the BT and not a stand along router table).

Any help or links to this info would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Chadi

did you read the BT3 FAQ linked to on this site?
There's a permanent link in the first post under getting started.
I know there's a section on rails, and a section on mounting routers.

One safety warning:
Your post about longer rails and wainscot makes me think that you plan to use rip fence to control length of wainscot while the actual cut will be a crosscut with SMT or miter gauge. Make sure to use a spacer block on the rip fence and not the rip fence itself to set the length of wainscot. Otherwise you are inviting a kick-back.

This link is a page from my website that shows my router fence. My wide table is just a piece of 3/4" melemine edged in red oak attached to the wide rail kit with the Ryobi supplied hardware.
