Description If you own a compact router, you already know what a useful tool it is. Specifically designed for use with compact routers, this table is the ideal complement; it lets you make the most of the tool’s small size and maneuverability for freehand use and adds the stability, safety and control of a router table that is compact, portable and easy to store. The table and fence combination brings repeatable accuracy to a wide range of common routing operations. The sturdy 15 1/2" × 11 1/2" table top is milled from 18mm Baltic birch plywood and has a low-friction laminate surface. Designed to accept the Veritas Compact Router Base Plate (offered separately), it has five levelling screws built into the table to ensure you can fine-tune the base plate height so it sits dead flush with the table surface. Two of the levelling screws also serve as insert nuts, accepting the two mounting bolts used to attach the base plate to the table. One of those mounting screws can be replaced with the pivot post (provided) for routing curves without the fence. The 14" machined aluminum fence has a pair of laminate-clad sub-fences (each 7 1/2" long) that can be adjusted to accommodate bit profiles for zero-clearance routing; integral top and face T-slot tracks can be used for mounting jigs and accessories, such as the included clear acrylic safety shield. Changing bits is easy – either slide the barrel of your router out of the base (leaving it attached to the plate) for easy access to the collet nut, or remove the two mounting screws and pull the entire router through the table opening for bit changing (or freehand use). This is a sturdy, versatile table that will greatly extend the utility of your compact router. Highly recommended. Made in Canada. The table top, base and fence are also offered separately for those who want to custom-make their own adaptation of the table.

The Yonico 14520 5 Bit Dovetail Router Bit Set contains 5 common dovetail bit sizes and angles needed for most dovetail projects. Can be used with a dovetail jig for half-blind dovetail joints or can be used together with dado bits to produce through-dovetail joints. The dovetail is probably the most recognizable of all woodworking joints. A dovetail joint is self-aligning and interlocking. There are numerous versions of the dovetail joint, including half blind dovetails, through dovetails, mitered dovetails and sliding dovetails. All of these variations are common in casework and drawer construction. A single dovetail bit can make almost any kind of dovetail, depending on the desired size. You'll need a jig to make most dovetail joints, as well as a guide bushing for your router. Check the instructions with your dovetail jig to select a bit with the appropriate angle, which will usually be somewhere between 7 and 14 degrees.

Description A simple upgrade to any compact router, this retrofit base plate mounts in place of the base plate supplied with your tool, improving its utility in several ways. When routing freehand, the 6" wide plate provides a broader platform to register against the surface of the work for better stability and control. Made of 1/4" thick clear acrylic, it doesn’t obscure your view of the work, and has a flat edge for reliable registration against a fence or template. It’s also the key to using the Veritas Table for Compact Routers, serving as an essential component that connects your tool to the table top. It’s available with predrilled mounting holes to match the base plates of common makes and models of compact routers. To ensure you order the correct version, go to the specifications tab, select the hole-pattern PDF corresponding to your router, and print the pattern at full size (100%). If your tool is not one of those listed, we offer a blank base plate, supplied with a centering guide and straightforward instructions on how to drill it to match the mounting-hole pattern of any other compact router. Each base plate accepts standard 1 3/16" template guides, inserts and inlay bushings, and has mounting holes for optional knobs (all sold separately). Made in Canada.
