Mar 01, 2006
The author evaluated 13 router tables for the sturdiness of their tables and fences, for dust collection, and for ease of operation and setup. A good router table is flat and has a stout base and a fence able to support jigs and hold-downs. The fence on the Freud is made of cast aluminum had has separately adjustable plastic-laminated MDF infeed and outfeed fences and no T-tracks. The top is 1-in. MDF with plastic laminate on one side and raw MDF edges. The base of this model flexed during use and the table sagged 0.025 in. Note that the price includes the Freud FT2000E router.
