Rockler Trim Router Table – Adjustable Table Router w/Pre-Drilled Holes on Back - Router Table w/High-Visibility Bit Guard, 1/4" Thick Acrylic Base – Router Tools for Woodworking

For someone like me that uses a router occasionally, and #1 doesn't have the room for a big router table, and #2 doesn't want to spend a lot of money, this was the perfect solution for my Dewalt DWP611 router. I can just hang it on the wall to keep it out of the way until I need it. Cost versus value was just right for me. Of course for someone that does a lot of woodworking, they're gonna want something nicer. I added a backing/clamping setup out of 3/4" oak I had laying around to make it stronger. It is screwed/glued/ and nailed, to make it a solid frame and become one with the table. I've included some pics. Now when I need it, I can just clamp it in the vise, or to a workbench. I also bought the optional vacuum attachment, and it does a great job when hooked up to my shop vac. For the occasional woodworker like me with limited space, this solution works really well.

Functionally, this router table is great. All holes that are drilled out are drilled cleanly and accurately. The green chip guard, combined with the optional dust port (highly recommended) do a superb job of collecting 98% of the generated dust. You read that correctly... 98%. As others have stated, you will need to add your own piece of wood to the rear end of the table in order to clamp it to your workbench. There are 3 countersunk holes to facilitate this. You will need your own wood and hardware to do so. Fence works just fine. Router plate fit my De W trim router perfectly, and although the mounting to the table is low-tech (gravity holds the plate to the 3 leveling screws), it works just fine. I removed 1/2 star in my rating because many of the tables come with minor blemishes in the vinyl covering. My fence had a small bubble on the rear. It has no effect on the functionality at all. One of the biggest strengths of this table is its portability. You can use it on any surface you can clamp it to. If you are looking for a cheap, yet surprisingly robust portable router table for your trim router, don't hesitate. This is going to be an extremely useful piece of equipment in my shop.

I’ve got a big ol’ honkin’ router table for the full size “cut a Chrysler in half” jobs, but sometimes a smaller job needs just the colt router and a small table to work with. This fills the bill, the Bosch colt router fits perfectly, it’s easy to clamp the table onto a bench and run a dust collection hose to it. Just right all in all for the quick setup needs. The three screws setup to adjust the acrylic insert height are a bit on the crude side, and I’m not sure if I will continue to use the acrylic insert with nothing more than the weight of the router to keep things where they need to be what with a bit going thousands of rpm. All considered though, this is good for the occasional use I intend it for.

I am usually happy with Rockler products but they dropped the ball a little bit on this one. The table itself seems to be of good quality but why not include the dust port? I would think that for $90 they could include the dust port instead of selling it separately for $13 (plus $8. shipping). Ridiculous. Also they don't list the DeWalt DCW600 as being compatible. I ordered a DW611, which is listed, but discovered that the acrylic base fits my DCW600 perfectly. I will cancel the DW611 order.

The table works great with my small router and does a perfect job for small projects. Glad I bought it, I couldn’t have done the work I was doing without it. Of course with all the mounting holes I had to drill holes for my Milwaukee router.
