The router table IS DONE!!! pix

quote:Anybody have a suggestion for a router table switch, im thinking relatively inexpensive here, (READ: cheap) its more of just a pain to have to dang near get under the bench to turn on the big green machine, let alone the safety implications of not being able to reach the switch,

I really appreciate any and all suggestions,

thanks

Check the member clasifieds. I have the switch and plug pirated from a salvaged BT3100 mounted in mine. Switch is on the face of the table and the original plug is mounted inside the router compartment.

has anyone built a suction box for around the router i would like to try and improve the dust collection of this apparattus, the one in the fence works great if you are doing any edge machining, however for items such as a dado or groove it just goes everywhere, i would like to design something that i can hook the dust collector into and have a 2 1/2" hose coming off of to hook to the fence, any suggestions or pics of current setups would be appreciated,

thanks,

kevin
