wortheffort | Router Table Build - Segment Two: Table Top Hardware Installation @wortheffort | Uploaded August 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Whether you buy a slab, laminate up a top or inset it into a prebuilt table/cabinet installing the hardware (T-tracks, fence, plate/lift) is a common requirement. You need fences, plates, lifts and slots. The techniques I illustrate I first saw 30 years ago with Norm Abrams on the New Yankee Workshop. Seems most people have mimicked his methods ever since. I hope in my variation to provide a couple alternatives plus illustrate how these skills can be applied to things like intarsia, inlays, pattern routing and the like.
This video is part 2 of a 12 part 'wortheffort' router table build series. Originally it was a "for sale" series but... It's for those who want to learn new techniques and joinery in addition to making a small shop tool.

Hand Illustrated Plans are available at: squareup.com/store/wortheffort-woodworking-store/item/frame-panel-router-table
The series represents about 100 hours of videography and editing time for me on top of decade of experience learning the skills in both teaching and craft. Plus I had my normal work and building schedule to cover expenses at the time.
