You can add a router table/platform to my list of nearly completed wood working projects for this week. I built a platform that will slot into the gap between the rails of my table saw guides. It still has some work to go on it, but the frame is cut, glued and screwed, ready to cut out the center hole, and router in a pocket for the plate to nest into. And when I care to, I can add a router to it, and work on a wide flat infeed/outfeed surface. I will need to create a router specific guide for it. Maybe just a sacrificial wood piece that can go over the router but still use my table saw guide as a starting point. Should make life easier.
Add that to the growing pile of shop infrastructure projects completed this week. A wheeled cart, a hand tool cubby, and now a router table. I also modified my 8 foot long track for my circular saw so that I can hang it vertically, instead of laying flat behind a bunch of tools where it was a real hassle to retrieve. Score! Easily accessible tools and work aids! Noice.
Only a week or so ago, I build a mini rack to house my new coarse Kutzall Wood Rasp Set. Pretty swanky, cut exceptionally well too. My friend is a big fan of the Shinto brand of Rasp. Looks mean, with rows of shark teeth. Not that the Kutzall isn’t aggressive in nature, like a mad sea urchin, with spikes of doom.
Now we are back to the weekend, after a busy and strangely broken up week. Lots to do today, so take care, and be well.
