[@craftedworkshop]

Thanks for watching y'all, hope you enjoyed this one! This was an easy DIY project and will be one of the most used tools in my shop! // Check out Arrow Fastener's full line of tools and fasteners : bit.ly/arrowcrafted

[@pip5461]

That is an awesome router table, having all the bells & whistles it would look nice in any workshop. Are you selling, or perhaps giving away your old table ? ... :)

[@bmfkyss]

As we all can see this is not quite a dyi but a ”how to acomodate/incorporate high endx expensive stuff that i got for free into some cabinet”. nice effort to put this toghether but it wount help me especially since i have no access to those gadgets.

[@crystalfiore9205]

Plans??

[@KevinSornberger]

@@crystalfiore9205 It's not his design... took it from another creator, but failed to give credit. You can find plans here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5msq32oib57eMU

[@paulpierce6096]

Dude, what gives? JSK-koubou router table video has 2.1M views, you think people wouldn't notice. Even if you only took inspiration from his video, why not credit the source? You have great and engaging content, don't be that guy!!!

[@davec.551]

This is beautiful project, who is their right mind would give it a thumbs down? Y’all need to go take a reality check!

[@mkbcoolman]

I'm currently doing a kitchen remodel, so I made room in the budget for one of those Foreman jigs. I've wanted one for a while, and I figured it would really help speed up the cabinet making. Man...how did I live without this thing? I have a K4 that has served me well and will still have its use in my shop, but there's nothing like the Foreman. Especially when doing larger pieces. I can batch out all the pocket holes for a full carcass in a few minutes. Definitely a worthwhile investment, iyam.

[@craftedworkshop]

It is such a killer tool for cabinet making!

[@brianwalsh829]

Really nice job I am just about to build one myself

[@mpe777]

AWESOME!!!!!! I'm super inspired because I don't want a metal stand or cabinet. Building a plywood cabinet is my goal and you have nailed it for me. Plus that power feeder has me thinking also. Great job!

[@mariah8200]

Wow I have never seen anything like that power feeder for a router table before that is so cool!

[@ltdanyj]

Learned something today!!! the "straw" trick!

[@tremor360]

me too!

[@verygoodboy2688]

This has to be the best router table on KZbin

[@marcelimarilag]

Watch JSK-koubou's version and get back to me.

[@verygoodboy2688]

@@marcelimarilag thanks for the reccomendation. I like things from both but prefer Johnny's

[@VROne111]

Cab and the equipment are a super set up

Hello my friend! Thanks! Congratulations from Brazil

[@craftedworkshop]

Thanks!

[@paulclark2410]

That power feeder is the bizness!

[@edb7487]

Router Cabinet looks great,is there a set of build plans for cabinet.

[@richardh.severn5980]

PLANS! .... WE DON"T NEED NO STINKING PLANS!

[@gkennedy]

That power feeder is awesome!!

[@keithwinchell310]

Great video and definitely like it, because how you incorporate the dust bucket. I don't see any plans available or I could just be not seeing them. Where would they be? Thanks

[@AGTDesigns]

Life is good when you have Mike Farrington as an on-call helpdesk! :) Awesome build, one of the best looking router tables i've seen! cheers mate

[@craftedworkshop]

Hah, definitely nice! Thank you!

[@KevinSornberger]

Is this not the router table from JSK-koubou? Why no credit given?

[@Flintbeats]

Exactly what I was thinking! Except JSK-koubou's table was 100% custom-fabricated, he couldn't even manage that.

[@justgorby]

Ya, I looked through the description hoping to see an acknowledgment but nothing...

[@gradeez]

That's what I thought! You know, I used to like this guy and watched him a lot. But nowadays, he seems to be getting more arrogant. Does he think he's a big celebrity now?

[@Yannis2022]

...and the same as almost all other router tables. No one should be forfotten, the list will be long and boring to read

[@Weirdusername01]

Nice build! Any plans on the way for us?

[@prestonhoffman5695]

Has the power feeder taps held up ok? Looks to be really secure to me.

[@Cliffepoos]

Wow. That is some nice tool you have there. Lucky guy.

[@Rob-Hannon]

This is one of those videos that gave me a ton of questions. How come you did not use glue on the cabinet? What countersink bit is that? What is that monster pattern bit for? Could you have used the push to open fittings behind the drawers instead of along the sides? Does that lift plate have a height lock?

[@ThisIsHowIMadeIt]

Hey , which screws are you using again? You just mentioned inch and a half self drilling... can you drop a link?

[@FranksDIY]

Awesome Buddy . I so happy for you. Love that router table and hopefully we will see it in use on future builds.

[@craftedworkshop]

Will definitely see it a lot in the future!

[@jeffhemingway5319]

Is this your design?

[@pakakam9898]

Great … It’s look so beautiful and quality.. Thanks

[@davecurda2350]

Looks great and I love the power feeder.

[@lornehutton7229]

cast iron top and router lift wow $$$ nice though , why not you only live once awsome job thx for sharing

[@SujMenon]

that router table build looks rock solid ! Love the push open mechanisms as well. makes the door front so modern.

[@shawnh3742]

Great videos! Could you tell me about the screws you used for the drawer to reinforce it thanks

[@JustOneRedSoloCup]

The 3/4" spacer for the hinge was a great solution... I always seem to run into mismatched hinges on hand. Welp... now I know. Thanks! Fantastic router table build, btw.

[@marvinbenjamin3015]

Awesome especially with the power feeder

[@judas587]

Wow so cool . Gotta do this !!!

[@markelljonessr8511]

Great router table build.

[@Mojave511]

Being the veteran of a number of full size router table setups over the years, including formerly owning a shaper, this is definitely one of the best I've seen. That Porter-Cable motor is definitely the industry standard for heavy-duty router tables.

[@katrinwansing6012]

This looks so sleek! Love how it turned out :) I also like how everything you need is in one place!

[@bkucharski]

What a great looking & very functional built with care router table. Could you please do a video or recommend a router table for us on a tighter budget? I would love to have a table like this someday. I took many ideas from this video. I appreciate your work & effort making this video. THANK YOU!

[@nordyfamily]

Getting better every day. Keep up the great work!

[@contrengbiru4747]

Wow..Expensive tools..great job

[@johnryan1698]

The straw trick for the glue is a great. I have been hoarding plastic straws for several months now, since in NY they are giving out paper ones

[@tomsdreamshopworx]

Nice solid build! I have a wooden router cabinet I built many years ago. I'm using the same 7518 router as you. I just inclosed the area where the router is and put in a 2.5" port for the fence and 4" output to my dust collection system. I am not sure where the separate metal box comes in since the router is already in a box (if you covered the back area). I like the ease of the router plate trim ring removal. No tools, just press a button.

[@craftedworkshop]

Thanks Tom! Yea the bucket might not have been really necessary I guess but it does a good job with that split port.

[@derekjarman1638]

That is a pretty cool router lift - I like the double speed spot for the lift and the button that pops out the insets - great build!

[@smallwjl]

Do you think that you will need to reinforce the sides to keep up with the weight of the power feeder? awesome build!

[@idontthinkso666]

Joshua Smallwood Yeah, AND the cast iron top?

[@luisreynalopes5016]

Excelente idea. Todo a la mano. Gracias

[@fightington]

That drop in move at 1:20 was sweet hehe

[@serenityprojects7364]

That’s so awesome! I absolutely love the table and the 2 side slide outs. But!! That last toy that you added is mind bowing for me because I didn’t even know that there was an option for the power feeder accessory. Soo crazy. Of course I thought to myself, duh, how could someone not have thought of making something like that? But I just didn’t know they had already built one. So!, thank you very much and I’m looking forward to the next project video.

[@raeperonneau4941]

Love the straw trick. Brilliant.

[@bijan4727]

Hello sir. Excellent presentation. I noticed that you said you corrected your factory edges. How do you that. I have hard time to get my stock to read 90 degrees. Do I have to have special tools or machine ? Please advice. Thanks

[@Marcus_Caius]

Nice project :) You can also use Push to open drawer slides.

[@KCElectrics]

The power feed is amazing!

[@SeanFoushee]

Seeing you drill into that beautiful top was a bit nerve wracking, but what a great addition. Love the vertical storage option and that dust collection is spot on. Great build!

[@MrTito5950]

Love the way that table turned out. Do you happen to have the build plans for that table?

[@tomtom786]

Very professional job, well done !

[@craftedworkshop]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@MrRahluv357]

Do u have plans for this build? I have a sawstop router cast iron table and I made the enclosures already, but I need the design for the bit storage. I think it will work in my table, thanks

[@thewizerdpickle2532]

I love these types of videos

[@craftedworkshop]

Thanks!

[@markpalmer3071]

So the power feeder for the router table is like an ebike... :D What a cool video though, love that router table.

[@ArturoMendezC]

Se ve genial la tabla de router👌🏻 algún dia

[@mikeduffey5201]

Do you have any plans I could have would like to build this for my shop

[@henrikflygarepipes5471]

Very nice! I really need to build a router table.

[@aaragon6866]

Love all the little tips on making this cabinet!

[@Mike-fv4ms]

😂 he had a few hours of free time probably lol I'm here with a drill and skill saw with pieces of wood from an old fence.

[@jacquelinekolbow7183]

We all have to start somewhere :)

[@PTechMedia]

I often screw mine under my picnic table... Through the sun brolly hole... I really need to make a real table... But it works... All you really need is a flat surface and some sort of support. And a fence system.

[@codymoreland4496]

I'm almost 5 hundred percent sure this wasn't just a few hours.

[@deficientgirl4224]

Nice job, dude. Awesome custom setup 👍

[@rkerby6375]

Amazing build! Well done!

[@FredMcIntyre]

Awesome work Johnny! 😃👍🏻👊🏻

[@rylch44]

Killer table man! Thanks for sharing

[@jbb5470]

Outstanding cabinet. I want one like this. On my todo list for sure. Always great videos and projects.

[@ChestnutRidgeWorkshop]

This thing is just awesome. Probably overkill, but awesome. Then again, you've showed the usefulness of that feeder so you got me thinking! Would you recommend the cast iron top over the other options out there? A "real" router table is on my list for sure.

[@Gabriel2.0]

Did you carried it into your house for the beauty shots? That deserves a like!

[@craftedworkshop]

Hah, nope just the front office area of the shop 😊

[@SaarGame]

Can You Make Plans For This? , I really liked the project and I want it in my own shop.

[@slightlycrookedworkshop]

Sucks for the old router table...forcing it to help bring about it's own death.

[@jeronomosp]

Epic build! Wish we had rockler in the UK.

[@craftedworkshop]

They are such a great resource!

[@Mucram-17]

Nice job man that thing is sweet!

[@keirfarnum6811]

The perfect router table. Now you just need to make one for me! Of course I don’t have room for one, but hey... Thanks for sharing.

[@rbclima]

man.... what a nice router table!

[@bear8046]

Badass project. Well done, as always.

[@faizamaze]

Curious, what slides did you use? I like the black

[@andyshields5935]

Nice video. Do you have any plans, made one similar but now want to make one larger.

[@chrissinsigalli7336]

Will you be selling plans for this awesome router set up?

[@Koox2]

Very nice build! I second Ed B's comment; can you share a set of build plans? Thanks!

[@alastairchestnutt6416]

Looks a great build. Very expensive too. Power feed is a great job on router tables and spindle moulders (shapers)

[@11211lcb]

I have questions . I noticed that you had the Woodpecker router lift and went with the Rockler lift this time. Was there a reason for switching to the Rockler other than maybe the Woodpecker would no longer fit the Rockler style table? How do the 2 compare? It seems the thumbwheel on the Woodpecker could take a lot of adjusting if you did not get close with the initial coarse adjustment. And were there any issues with the phenolic table top? Thanks!

[@dimarc67]

Nice, straightforward build! Love the "vertical" drawers, but I'm concerned that the slides you used aren't designed to hold weight in that direction. Based on your design, I think I'd have built the bit storage frames to provide room for the slides on the sides at the bottom, and let the bit shanks hang into the space between the slides.

[@PTechMedia]

There shouldn't be substantial weight so the slides shouldn't bend. But I think your right that they won't hold the published weight limits in that orientation. It's just a common sense thing though. You wouldn't put a bag of and in those drawers

[@Karaon]

Attach a memory-shape pipe for sinks etc. to your drillpress as a dust collector. Really works great

[@michaelwalz3047]

Whats the name brand of that wrench set you have thats encased with a plastic holder? Thank you Michael

[@wahidgarib2184]

FROM MOROCCO YOU ARE THE BEST

[@topgundk]

Youre the man, building a Router table and at the exact same time riding your E-MTB, impressive :) or some Internet magic, who knows :)

[@craftedworkshop]

Hah! The magic of editing 😂

[@Heart-Beliefs--SamWilliamson]

Are you willing to share plans, even rough plans or dimensions? (I don't need much.) Pretty cool!

[@zodak9999b]

That's an awesome router table, Johnny!

[@basha9482]

Great build. Thanks for sharing. Any concern with the table being top heavy, particularly with the power feeder?

[@markbaldwin3674]

Sounds like a great idea!

[@micahhicks9437]

What kinda track is that in your drill press table?

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

Beautiful router table Johnny! Congratulations! on the new tool :) Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👍👌😎JP

[@mauriciocorreas]

Great build, could you plz share the type of self drilling screws used and wjere to get them/link? Thx

[@tntcox100]

Love the build, nice work 👍

[@GlassImpressions]

Beautiful

[@leapinglemurcraftworks6426]

That came out nice

[@drivetastefully]

Hi Johnny had a question what kind of drawer slides are you using? I didn't find the link in the description otherwise awesome video bud!!

[@simonr6793]

I'm very envious now seeing your router table setup, I've got to ask how much did the router build cost not including the plywood itself or do you have links to purchase the tabletop, power feed and the router? 👍🇬🇧

[@BubbaBen01]

It is all in the description

[@jkbethune]

The table top on it's own is $900 US from Rockler. Oops,... sorry, my bad. It's actually $899. Either way, at this point it's way way way out of my price range.

[@ShapingSawdust]

Very tidy build! It’s given me a few ideas for when I put my router table together. Keep up the good work 👍

[@j.carterrobinson1414]

I'm not I master carpenter and don't even have a drill press but when I saw you using your vacuum on the drill press I thought you could somehow mount the vacuum hose to the drill bit holder. I don't know if this would actually work but if it would I think you should try it.

[@thomasjohnmahon6120]

Hi as a amateur my self I'm wondering why you can stagger the guide rail and does it make a difference as it looks like yours doesn't

[@Marcus_Caius]

One of the best router build I saw so far. How do you like the rockler radius corner jig?
