    Yeah I figured that 11" would do virtually everything, except perhaps parallel trenches, but that can be done other ways.

    "The rest..." ¿Que? Holy smoke!

    I cant think of too many projects when you would want to be trenching 17 inches from the edge of the board either
    I got sick of sitting around doing nothing - so I took up meditation.

    Mine's just a homemade of 2 pieces of MDF sandwiched together with woodpecker phenolic insert.. Roughly 1200mm by about 800-900mm. Was made before I got LS Positioner, so used cutout from centre to attach a piece at the back with angle iron to get nearly full depth. Have only gone close to needing that depth once.

    I have never a triton described as clunky under a table. I have been using them for a very long time and I find them excellent. My current table is long and made of two sheets of melamine glued together and sitting on a welded frame. The router is attached to a Kregg router plate and the whole things works just fine.
