As always, it is such a pleasure to collaborate with you, Tamar. I look forward to all the really cool things we have coming up. I always look forward to seeing what you come up with. Thanks for the kind words. Don’t forget you can add the little pin that comes with the router jig as a starter pin to the plate with a 1/4-20 tap. check out my latest video for more details.
I made it about 7 minutes into the video before I pulled the trigger on this. Purchased!!!
Pony up for the screws for the side, man
@@terristroh3965nah. We include all the specialty hardware and screws for the t-track. All of which I buy in bulk at significantly cheaper than retail. Good screws are tough to get wholesale without buying hundreds of thousands at a time. With labor to pick and pack 36 screws I’d have to charge at least $10 more for the product. My employees tried it and we’re just getting poked and frustrated by the process. Screws are one of those personal preference things (Phillips, square, t drive etc) so I dont want to pay retail for screws and have to pass all the labor and marked up materials cost to the consumer. Figure we all have screws laying around our garage so you might as well save $10 and use the screws of your choice.
With you Jonathan, if there is anything a workshop should have in abundance, it's screws! Every trip to the hardware store, a feller ought to get screws and bolts, I think I have just about every size made up ti 5/8x 8" Lag bolts.
Looks awesome! My only feedback would be to pre-drill the pilot holes. Great work!
Tamar, it has been a joy to watch your channel grow. Your ardor and warmth really comes through in your videos. Wishing you continued success in your woodworking and personal endeavors. 🙏🏼
Tamar, if you cut the screw down for the handles, you will have a lot less threads to screw on and off. You don't need that many. I do this all the time when making things that need to break down and assemble quickly. For the handles you just need about three threads catching and you'll be fine. Thread a nut on them first before cutting, it will help clean up the threads afterwards. Love your videos!
Been following the channel for like 4 years now, you're one of the most consistent creators, the quality is simply always there.
I bought your 6-in-1 jig when it first became available and it is fabulous. When Jonathan announced the router table collaboration it was a no-brainer to buy one. Together, they are fantastic and I’m finding I use it more than I thought I would. Kudos to you both on some very good quality gear!
So awesome to hear ☺️
I don't remember buying a useful tool that became even more useful later on. Love it. Ordered router table about 4 days ago. Props for the engineering and the partnership.
I wouldn't call a palm router in a router table more useful than one not in a router table. In fact I think the opposite may be true. Palm routers are for putting on edge details. They don't have the power for proficiency in a table on hardwoods.
The only way my palm routers getting inverted is if I'm getting inverted with it!
My 3 routers are a makita palm router, festool 1400 plunge, and my dad's 2.25hp bosch (in the table) all plug in, all variable speed. I want a 3.25hp router for my table. Not ready to jump yet. Triton has gone downhill, rockler won't carry thier new model routers... Festool is $1,000 so I'm waiting. hoping bosch makes a 3.25hp model again soon, or an update from Milwuakee, or I'm buying a makita.
Umm, thanks...I guess. I will keep all of that in mind next time I am woodworking in an inverted position. Until then, I 'stand' by what I wrote. My shop is small and will never need a 3hp anything, even for hardwoods. By the way, the tool I referred to being useful was Tamar's jig, not the router. Her jig has been very useful to me, especially while free hand routing signs for relief carving. The addition of a small table to do additional tasks makes it 'even more useful', in addition to my two full size router tables with full size routers. Thank you for your opinion, tho.@@brandonhoffman4712
I was moving my workbench across the garage last week and watched in horror as my router--with your jig attached--pummeled to the floor. All in glorious slow-motion before my eyes. My new one arrived today. Lesson learned!
Oh no! Glad the replacement arrived!
Love the video and the project. Just a thought, if you drill holes for the handles, you can just lift it off and use it. 24 seconds become 0.
It’s a very nice table, enabling you to use the router with the base left on and not having to take everything apart, and losing pieces parts. Looks like your new shop space is working out well. I especially the like garage door with the windows.
Glad you like it! It’s so nice to work with natural light
Como se nota cuando a alguien le gusta y le pone pasión a lo que hace. Y es contagioso! Muchas gracias por compartir tu talento... 😊
☺️☺️
I got the jig + table bundle from KM tools about 2 weeks ago! Absolutely Love it!! Fits my Makita 18V perfect. Took me a bit longer to assemble since I didn’t watch the video before and assemble my needed supplies like Tamar… (I wouldnt call that cheating, just a bit more OCD…) I would pause the video and gather tools as I went. But I was in no hurry and had a couple cups of coffee. I didn’t use any superglue. I sanded with 220 and put a finish of oil/poly/spirits on and also an included sticker. The next day I had to round off slats for a good size project. Those pieces were 3’ and I did both sides of about 60 of them… Apart from changing batteries, I didn’t have to make any adjustments AT ALL and the quality on the last one was just as good as the first. I used a shop vac for dust collection behind the fence like Tamar did and secured the hose with a bungee. I also mounted a strong magnet to the inside of the box which keeps my router wrench handy. I store my earplugs around the handle cutout. I am considering putting some ruler tape on the tracks (0 on each track lined up with the center of the bit)… but a ruler works well for now.
I’m a big fan of Tamar and JKM, and this collaboration is AWESOME!!! Thank you both and keep on trucking.
Sounds like some great additions!
I’ve missed your face and content so bad!!! So happy to see you out here conquering queen!! Huge supporter here
Hahah! Thanks so much! Working on a bunch of other stuff that I can share soon 👍
I am working on a big reorganization of my garage and I can hardly wait to use my router jig and base! You are the most inventive person and I am so glad that you and Jonathan are partners on these projects. I am excited to see what is next!
Maybe a way to convert a jig saw into a mobile band saw...
Or a table mounted random orbit sander.
Or a multi-tool table saw.
There are tons of ways to waste time while achieving similar results as other larger more proficient tools. It's up to us humans to decide where to draw the line.
My palm router will be staying in my palm. I feel a router table should contain a 2.25-3.25hp router for proficiency.
I have the 6-in-1 Trim Router Jig and I like it very much. I also have a dedicated router mounted to a router table so I personally don't need this now. However, I could have used this years ago when my shop was a lot smaller (and so was my budget). This looks like a solid design and a great overall table for people with limited space and for people routing smaller things (esp. limited space). I especially like the fact that this table was designed to match an existing product rather than forcing people to buy something new. All around three thumbs up on this.
Glad you like it! Yeah, totally not for everyone, but great for those that don’t have a larger set up!
Purchased the 6and 1 about a year ago and the Router table kit just arrived. This is great for a new woodworker on a budget and a small garage shop. Thanks for all you do😃
Great to hear!
Off topic, but I loved watching your shop build. I think my favorite part of the shop I only noticed today--the see-through rollup door. Love having natural light to work with.
It really is nice to have the natural light. But sometimes awkward when the ups guy drops a package off and I’m mid cut 😂
@@3x3CustomTamar oh no! I designed my own router table to fit on one of those famous fliptop tables (since I'm a bit space limited). I added flip up "wings" giving me another foot of table space on either side. I also cut a metal yard stick in half, then glued them into a groove on either side of the router--this way i have TWO reference points to line up the back wall. Happy to send pix if there's a way to do that.
Just ordered the 6 in 1 and the table. Can't wait to get it. This will be my first router table. Still in my first year of woodworking. I've learned a ton from watching your videos.
Awesome. Hope you enjoy it!
Love the cooperation between you and Jonathan.
Awesome! I see you're still using the old school finger glue brush!! 😂😂 I use mine a lot too! Thanks for this video. You are a natural born teacher and we're grateful to have you teach us. 🥰
Well when you said 'assembly is fun' I am just going to have to trust you on that because I have never know that to be the case but that's me :) Good to see you back on the air. Missed your videos. Your shop looks great!
Here's a great story. Been helping a scout with a woodworking project. Lots and lots of funky angles and lots of Dominos. I told the scout that I never got out of my head how you stated in a video that you use make the loose cuts on both ends of the domino just in case. Ironically, I caved on one complicated joint - I did the same and am glad I did!
LOL! Funny energy in this one.
I HIGHLY recommend you seal all the raw edges of the table top. In my experience, the cut edges of particle board and MDF will swell and warp from moisture, and since the middle is cut out to accept the template, it will also warp unevenly and could eventually make the table not very flat. Paint the template cut out area to seal it up, and hopefully it won't amount to much with such a small table top.
I could see a lot this being really useful for some carpenters on job sites.
I just love it! It's small and cute, and for the home hobbyists it's really space saving and convenient! Top job you guys!
Also really like the relaxed pace of this video.
Edit: Ooh! Ooh! Can't wait for your workbench video! I'm obsessed with workbench designs in hopes of building one myself one day and figuring out how to build it.
Cute? Yeah that’s exactly what I want in a router table 😬
@@HBSuccess I wasn't trying to sell it to you, I was simply stating my opinion 🙄
Excited to get the workbench video posted! I sprained my ankle while building it so it is slow going…
@@3x3CustomTamar Gotta build yourself a new ankle then! :D Hope it gets better soon, don't overload it... you only got one... I mean two ankles! ❤
That's just brilliant, Tamar! You guys did a fantastic work! 😃
Really great design!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks so much! 😊
My thoughts are, since I already have your 6 in 1 jig, I went and immediately checked the price on Jonathan's kit and went and ordered it. And since I'm tired of having to use my Dewalt jobsite table saw to cut dado's and mortises, and since I have a router with a few bits and a need to make a few drawers and other accessories, this will be crazy useful to me in the near future! Brilliant.
Awesome! Have fun with it!
This is a great collaboration effort! Y’all are doing an awesome job!
Amazing! Love my 6-in-1 and have already pre-ordered the table. Super convenient, and the fact that this system can accommodate a variety of routers is fantastic! It will work out well in my small shop.
I love it when my favorite woodworkers come together to make cool stuff!
🙌🙌
I watched Jonathon's video before yours, only because his came out a couple of days ago. I'm thinking that this would be perfect to be mounted into a work bench as a main router table, for those of us who don't have a large, stand alone router table, or are constrained by space issue in our shops. To that point, some beefy corner blocks with threaded inserts would be handy for holding it in place until such time as you need to move it to an outdoor location or to take it into the house to do some work in there. I do realize that it wouldn't be the same as a beefy 3 1/2 hp router, in a dedicated router table, but for many of us it would be perfect for long runs of round overs and chamfers. I love the fact that both of your logos are laser engraved on the fence portions. Looking forward to whatever the next collaboration brings to the world. Keep up the great work and let's see how many times this gets used in upcoming projects.
I would recommend buying a router table insert and a router insert routing template.
Then you can router in your router table into any workbench you make. Placing a router table into a work table feels like tableception.
The advantages with this setup, is it will work with any router, and any router lift, should you want one down the road. There won't be a need to re-engineer your bench!
All the stuff needed is available @ rockler woodworking or probably woodcraft as well.
I thought the router jig was great. Then realized this video was about the router table JKM designed for your jig. This solved two issues for me. Getting both. Love the collaboration and hope to see more of this within the community. As always, great video!
I love the 6 in 1 and now with the table, it is so versatile and like you demonstrated, very quick to go from one one use to the other. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and creativity!!
Wow I logged back into an old TH-cam account and just rediscovered your channel!! Holy cow you’re crushing it. So cool!
Haha! 🤘
This will be a definite purchase when I'm ready... well done!
Bought your 6 in one router jig and love it. Also bought one as a gift & that person loves it. However I saw Johnathan’s video back in August & bought the router stand. Opened the box & all the top plate & parts made of partial board were broken in half. It looks like it was put in the bubble wrap & placed in box that way. Have emailed Johnathan 4 times and no response from him,except mention his email support@. So when I have time guess I’ll remake those particular boards out of real wood myself. Love your videos 😊but poor support from Johnathan Katz.
We just ordered the bundle!
The timing of this is perfect as my wife and I are just starting woodworking as a hobby! Thank you for the innovations and the amazing videos!
Awesome! Have fun with it!
Does this meet OSHA saftey requirements.
The lack of a paddle switch has me skeptical.
@brandonhoffman4712 it's made of wood. What the heck are you talking about?
@@LollipopWoodworksNWA off a cursory Google search basically every router table I see has a paddle switch. Except for 1 grizzly, 1 kregg, and a 90 dollar Temu joke.
@brandonhoffman4712 so what exactly is your point? OSHA safety requirements lol. Gtfoutta here gramps.
That is a great design I will have to build myself one soon. It's over 100 every day now so most plans are on hold no AC in the shop. You did a fantastic job thank you.👍♥️
Thanks so much! Hopefully it’s cooled down since then
Nice job on the design of both products. I ended up having to use a 1/2" shank bit on a project and I just cut a piece of plexi to the same dimensions as your 6 in one jig. Then I drilled holes for the router base. In less than 10 minutes I have a 2nd router that fits in the router table. It's kind of handy because Instead of changing bits and having to realign everything I just pop the routers in and out of the table. It was very handy for my sliding dovetails. The initial channel with the straight bit on one router, pop that router out, run the dovetail with the 2nd router. It's actually quicker than the bit change.
Not certain it meets OSHA saftey standards. Most bench tools these days have a paddle switch for the power.
@brandonhoffman4712 oh, I see now. You're some kinda weird OSHA fanboi with safety posters all over the house huh. Guess what, OSHA doesn't operate world wide and most of us don't care what they think is safe or not.
@TheMixitman my bad didn't know you weren't from the states. I would imagine any modern civilized nation has a governing body over construction standards for human saftey similar to OSHA. And yes I am a fan of OSHA as are most Americans that work in construction. They are keeping us from reaching an early grave like so many have that came before us.
The only poster I have is one of you bathing in paint thinner breathing in methelated spirits straight from the can while angle grinding without any form of PPE. There you are on my wall with a look of confusion with a caption that reads (PPE I play with my PPE everynight!)
Nice little table, Tamar. It looks well designed and versatile. Since you were trying to "race the clock" - it would be fair for most of us to say it can go from table-to-hand in under a minute.
My hands are very slow 😂
Since you’re in the Festool ecosystem: There’s a company called ToolCurve that makes adapters that will do the twist lock on the Festool hose and then mate directly to the Dewalt dust shroud. Their products and customer service are both exceptional!
I've been using my Makita 18V trim router with your 6-in-1 jig with a router table since some time last year. I left a comment on Jonathan's video saying his design is so much better than the router table I made, but the one thing mine does that his doesn't is that it allows me to go from handheld to router table in under 5 seconds. Cos unlike his, in which you need to unscrew the handles, then screw them back on from the bottom, with mine, the jig stays on all the time and is just slotted from the top of the router table. The flip side of that, of course, is that there's nothing but gravity holding the jig and router down. So far that's been fine, possibly cos of the extra weight of the 5Ah battery.
I have to add that I discovered another use for your 6-in-1 router jig two days ago - as part of a router sled setup (using two of the extension feet, the two extension arms, four bolts and four knobs). I shot a short clip of that, but haven't edited it. When I post it on Instagram, I'll tag you.
I was wondering the same thing about whether it was even necessary to screw the top down since you're going to be pushing down on it anyway with the piece that you're routing.
@@michaelgrove7565 The only reason I can think of is if there's massive kickback. But I am careful about how I feed the piece I'm working on..
It’s def just a safety thing and you can leave them off. That sounds like a great added use!
CA + wood glue is pure genius 🤩
Great collaboration project and innovative design of both the six in one jig as well as the benchtop table. I have the jig and am planning on adding the benchtop table to my shop for additional versatility. Thanks Tamar and Jonathan!
Fantastic Working, my great compliment ... all your videos are inspiring (Peter from Germany)
Glad you like them!
I just ordered the 6-in-1 jig, FINALLY! I wanted it when you first came out with it. Maybe in a few more years I can get the table. 😄
Just ordered my combo kit.. Tamara did an excellent job of Demonstating the jig and the table.. I would not have purchased if not for her.. let’s face it Guys Katz M is ok but don’t have her skill with showing the products. GREAT JOB GREAT VIDEO!
🤣 glad you liked the way I showcased the product!
The only complaint I can think of on this unit is the placement of the router bits. If you put the bits there and then need to remove the router to change the bit, good luck no cutting your hand. And you can see this at 16:46. I think putting the bits on each side of the front legs, 3 or 4 per side would be more practical and safer.
Qué despliegue con todas esas cámaras.!!! Me encantan tus trabajos,tu nuevo Taller.!!!
Lo Mejor para Vos Flaca.!!!!
Looks like a great product. If I was looking for a compact RT I would definitely get this, but unfortunately my shop space is so small I can't even have this. I need a RT integrated into an existing workspace to save room. I'm sure this is going to do fantastic though. It's cheaper and better than most other portable RTs out there.
Awaiting the arrival of mine as we speak. Thanks for this video, along with JKM's video on the assembly, I am ready to put mine together when it arrives.
3 camera shoots now! This page is really going places!!!!
I purchased my bundle yesterday and can't wait for it to arrive! My current plan is to figure out a way to attach it to a mobile cart so I can get some extra storage in my small garage, which doesn't have a lot of great workspace to clamp this down on. I'm really excited to check out the 6-1 jig as well! Thanks!
Thinking about doing the same! Pretty excited to get this guy up and running in the shop soon!
Awesome. That sounds like a cool plan
I watch a lot of woodworking videos and I feel half the time you guys are making tools to make other tools work better and efficiently lol.
Yes.
Tamar, I am a novice woodworker, new to your channel and I love your videos. I would love to see all of the jigs you use for your projects. I am also about to pull the trigger on the benchtop router table bundle. Please keep the videos coming thank you so much.
I have videos on all my jigs!
I love my jig! It has been a life saver in so many situations. Router table is my next purchase!
Awesome to hear!
Fantastic video Tamar. Jonathan makes some incredible pieces and as you mentioned, they are well thought out. What I really liked about this design is the open front. It may seem like a little detail, but having full access to my router for adjusting height or quick changing bits, really is an advantage and time saver. Also, the extra room inside the box that allows for my vacuum hose to connect to my routers dust collector (I have the same set you as you do) is exciting. Even with my full sized 3 HP router table, my dust collection doesn't work that well, so I see myself using this small job router table a lot more. Thank you for doing these videos. Keep up the good work and I look forward to watching your newest projects.
Sweet, I've been wanting to pick up a router table and working with the jig I already own is even better!
Enjoy!
A great addition to my modest-size shop!. I'll invest shortly. Thanks Tamar and Jonathan.
Hope it works out for you!
I’ve really missed your content. Keep up the great job
Love the idea and product. I love your 6 in 1 jig. to be honest, I will probably take this idea and make my own table out of scraps. thanks for the content.
Great product and video. Only problem is the bit storage……a cut hand waiting to happen every time you reach into box to make a router adjustment.
3:37 you were the kid in school who put chewing gum under all the tables weren’t you?🤣
I preordered it when I had the chance. It’s a fantastic router table. Easy af to assemble and use
Awesome to hear!
Enjoy both you and Jonathan’s videos. Purchased today and looking forward to using onto my projects.
Awesome! Hope it works out for you!
@@3x3CustomTamar Also congrats on your past article in Fine Woodworking several months ago.
the router table looks quite interesting... something might be interested in getting.
though I wanted to comment I like your new set up, with the windowed garage door, seems to give you a lot more natural light on the bench!
I’m loving the natural light for working but it’s hard for filming
Congratulations Tamar you guys did an amazing job on both products they are great can’t wait to get mine.
very nicd little router table but (of course) but perhaps I am missing something here. I went to the web site to check out the cost and I noticed there is a rather large opening for the baseplate a yet no baseplate is included. I assume you created this for your specialized baseplate that costs an additional $70.00 that I am no interested in. So what is the size of that opening or do you offer a top that I could router out my own opening for my routers baseplate. Thanks for a fine video.
Tamar, this is a great new product. I have wanted a small router table for my small shop for some time, but small tables usually lack functionality and large ones are just too big for my shop. This one seems to hit all the checkboxes. Patrick Sullivan posted a video for his small router table build a couple years ago-and looks quite similar to this one, btw-which I wanted to build but just haven’t gotten around to. The JKM kit appears to be a way for me to fast-track the process. I just ordered the bundle kit from JKM. Thanks for posting this!
Love the new space you've been building. You should get a fancy softbox light for filming though !
And have another thing to move around while I’m building?! 😂 I tried that in my old shop. I gave up…
@@3x3CustomTamar LOL not worth it then! all that matters is the content being shared :)
The 6-in-1 jig is awesome! It already came in handy lots of times on my latest builds.
This flat pack router table looks very cool too. Maybe gonna try to replicate it for myself, and if I fail hopelessly I'll buy JKM's ! (he makes really great woodworking stuff, so cool that the two of you make these colabs!)
I know this is a router table video, but I would really like to see a video how you do a full box joint without a jig? With a bottom plate also 😅
Length?, Width?, Height?
I love the 6 in 1 jig, it is amazing. Can't wait to get this too!
Hope it works out for you!
My table is on the way! I got the jig a few weeks ago, looking forward to some router fun in the near future.
Awesome. Have fun!
@@3x3CustomTamar no shipping update yet, keeping my fingers crossed that it ships soon.
I bought the 6 in 1 jig this afternoon, just hoping it doesn't take 6 weeks to get! Cheers
Awesome! Should be a couple weeks 👍
Great video as always. I haven’t used my 6 in 1 yet and my router table is coming Monday. Nice collaboration.
Awesome. Have fun with it!
I have a fixed router table already. But there are times would this would be really handy. I like this idea. I did get your 6 in 1 router jig. But working on other projects right now and haven’t used it yet. Can’t wait to
I have been using it even thought I have a large router table too
I was set to buy the Skil Router table as my first one. Nope! Not anymore. Looks like this moved to the top of the list!
I’ve ordered one and a second baseplate kit. Appreciate you so much ✌️
Tamar, I’ve become a MicroJig dovetail clamp fanatic. If you created a dovetail channel on the edge of your Armor bench top it would be an excellent mode for clamping during assembly. OH- and Awesome shop- I’m envious!
Nice, clever design. I might have missed it, but it looks like a good table take on the road.
Yeah! For sure, that’s why I used the sawhorses 😉👍
Mine arrives tomorrow and I cannot wait to put it together, finish it, and begin using it! Thanks for all your efforts, Tamar (...and JKM, I guess. :) )
holy shit has she changed her workshop location it looks different and that dust collection system is just nuts !!
Yup. There were videos on the move and the dust collection system 👍
@@3x3CustomTamar seems I have some videos to watch 🤣🤣😀
Great looking routing addition.... I have your jig and will be ordering this table... Thanks for the heads up...
Awesome. Have fun with it!
thank you so much for your great work. Its a pleasure to see your projects.
Many thanks!
Good stuff as usual Tamar. I enjoy these informative vids.
Glad you like them!
As usual Tamar, ya sold me! Great video. Love the 3 cam setup! 👍
Awesome! Thank you!
If you made the holes big enough for the handles to fit through then added a spring clamp of some kind to each it would make the process quicker and easier.
Pretty nice idea, but ...
for a couple of dollars you can buy the router-cage as a spare part.
So you can mount the router-cage permanently and precisely adjustet under ther router tabe.
For mounting the router, you only have to set it into the router-cage, without having to unscrew and rescrew the handles and without having any adjustment issues.
Thats the way I built my little router table for having it every minute handy. :-)
Ok
Great video. I just ordered the Combo. Thanks!
Great video! I was inspired by your 6 in 1 jig, and made one of my own (engineer with spare time and access to CAD...) It's definitely slightly different than yours, because I didn't have the plan, and made it to be cut out of a smallish sheet of polycarbonate, so it's likely a smidge smaller. But it works awesome. I'm going to have to make a table for it!!
Awesome video great idea both the router table and jig. Digging your new shop.
Would love to see a bigger version that could conceivably stand in for a proper router table
Looks great!
Do you think you could make the table double as a carrying case for the router itself and a handheld circular saw? This would make the combo more portable and help with storage efficiency.
Really neat idea! I’ve got to either build the router jig or buy it and Katz mini router table! Now I’m dying for some shop builds!!! I want to see your version of a mitre station (if you have one) or shop furniture and storage solutions galore! You’re always always so thoughtful and creative and I’d love to see how you’d deck out your awesome new shop
I just settled on my miter station location. So I’ll work on something soon! (Sprained my ankle so working very slowly….)
I knew you were headed for bigger things!Congrats.
☺️🙌
I can't wait for my baseplate/stand combo to ship!
🙌🙌
I think it's a bad idea to have holes for the bits in the base. If you attempt to remove the router with the base full of very sharp bits, you run a high risk of injury. But it’s a very nice and useful little tool.
Thank for this great video❤
It’s an option not a requirement to store bits there. That being said I’ve been using these for two months and not had an issue.
@@katzmosestools Giving the opportunity to do that to an inexperienced person without warning is irresponsible.
Look at the video when Tamar remove the router, her arms hit the bits holder.
Warning is easier then apologizing.
@@capitainehaddock9388 JKM’s warning: sharp things will cut you. Use the same care you use around every single tool in your shop that is sharp. If it worries you you are not obligated to store your bits there but I promise you will find it useful if you do decide to use it.
@@katzmosestools maybe for v2 instead of optional bits in the affixed base - standardize a modular connection for easy mounting/removal of bits via a french cleat module.
@@ChuckJaeger “A poem is never finished, only abandoned” go check out the video I did this last week about how we developed this. Pretty cool look into how product development works and how much thought we put into this. I’m sure we could keep adding things until it looked like the Terminator.
From my experience making cleats on the cnc is incredibly inaccurate, cost prohibitive and not something we plan on changing or offering. There’s lots of ways people could modify this to fit their needs and I encourage them to do so if they would like. My point is this, nobody has to use the feature of a tool we offer. It’s there if you want to but it doesn’t take away a single thing from the functionality of it if you decide not to use it. I am certain this is the most functional, strongest, and versatile router table on the market at this price point. In my video we set my Ford F350 Dually on top of two of them and they hold it up. I am very proud of that fact. Use the holes or don’t but complaining that they there in the first place is silly.
i saw you in an advertisement on another you tube channel for a chisel honeing tool. hope you got paid for that
Hmmmm… what channel was is?
@@3x3CustomTamar i think it was blacktail studios. sorry it to so long to reply. im new to this technology stuff.
I ended up buying both of these, but please make sure you find the bundle. Kim tools website is not very friendly, it does not link the bundle or the six and one jig it’s self, so I ended up buying the bundle separately. I didn’t even know, what Jonathan was referring to when he said it uses the six and one router jig.
Least he could do is drill the holes for ya. hehe. I build my own for my shop. Made the top out of a school desk top.
Glad to see you back, Tamar. I have missed you.
Wait a minute... is this the same router table I built last year? :D Not 100%, but damn close. I added a handy fine adjustment router lift, made from some scrap plywood.
