DIY ROUTER TABLE
I made this bench top router table with wood scraps and pieces I had laying around. This could easily be turned into a standalone router table or as some call it a router station. The plywood was a bit wavy so I used epoxy glaze coat to self level the top in two applications. This seems to have worked really well for me. This is my first router table build and was a lot of fun! My overall cost was about $100. Honestly the base plate was most of that. I personally wanted a base plate for for two reasons. One I can change the hole size with inserts and two it has a spot for a starting pin.
