G'day Big Shed,
Yep, option is the go.
Square router bits , I knew I should've asked the bloke behind the counter about that.

Don't worry about the maths; I haven't had the time to go through it properly, but it does look interesting!
So does your router table. I may have to investigate further at different options at the WWS.Matthew
Be alert; Australia needs lerts.

We've got to give you something to do.....
[QUOTE=Waldo;586388]
The result is pic 1 I was abit surprised that the channels for the scale track: http://www.woodworksupplies.com.au/prod5.htm had radiused corners, I thought they might have been trimmed square post routing, this leaves me with 3 options:
1. carefully cut through the laminate and pare the corners;
2. accept the reduction in scale track length and bog up the radiused corners; or
3. put a radiused coner on the scale track to fit.
[QUOTE]
Waldo,
9.5mm radius corners in the Stopped grooves are an unfortunate byproduct of CNC routing, debate rages with our customers.... square the grooves or radius the track????? With the introduction of our new High Pressure Laminated Tops, I'm leaning towards radiusing the ends of the tracks, a disk or even a belt sander will do a great job. I can't imagine your option 2/. Yuk!!!
Otherwise we look forward to seeing the finished product. BTW yours is a teeny baby router table we've just sent a 1350 x 800 table all the way to Geraldton in WA.
Keep up the progress reports.
Regards
The Woodworker

G'day Grahame,
I ended up going down the path of squaring the corners of the rebates, didn't take long and a scalpel come in handy for the laminate then a nasty sharp mortice chisel finished the job off.
No more pics yet, yesterday I cut the tracks to length and cut up some the aluminium angle for the fence and router lift. Should have some pics tonight.
1350 x 800, you can never have to big only too small. Size of shed and room depending of course.

Well Howdya and I went out to Waldos for a beer or two and thought we would look at this famous router table. Loh and behold it was finished. He showed us all his hard work.
as you can see it is very portable, you can even sit down at it while you are routing.I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

G'day,
What's more, you can have a mate sit at the opposite end and have a few vitamins. What more or how much more complex does a router table need to be?
