    Talking Routing table plans

    Hear ye! Hear ye! I needs a better router table !! ( my Triton is giving me the fits !!!!!!!) - Naturally I want to build a good one. Any one have any suggestions or plans? I use a Bosch1300ace (fairly hefty)and also a 1/4 inch one. I need to be able to get the router in and out of the table with as little hastle as possible.

    Hi Richard,

    What is wrong with the Triton??

    I have/use/rely on the 2000 version, other than it used to vibrate a bit when routing thicknesses of 1" or more (which I solved by adding the ability to brace each leg to the floor), I haven't struck any problem or difficulty with it yet.

    Is there an issue you have with it that I haven't confronted yet?

    What should I be on the lookout for?

    Hi Richard,

    I have the Triton2000, I haven't found any problems with the routing table other than some vibration when using thicknesses over 1". I got around this by clamping the legs to the floor.

    What aspect of the table has you in fits?
