Hi,
Yesterday, my Dad was in a charity shop, and saw a router table. He
immediately phoned me up, and said, there's this router table etc..
so I said how much?
£10! he replied
He checked it was all there, mitre gague, table extentions etc. it's a
little benchtop one (3' wide with extentions). This is just what I'd been
looking for. Now what little gadgets do I need to make?
Thanks,
Sam

Happy Christmas to everyone.. !!25th December!!
AAnd I might add it being a router table, woodworking is much nicer
when one is able to hear. Use hearing protection with the router!

I always wear my plastic face shield too - just in case. And, my
dust mask - just in case. And, keep your fingers away from the whirley
parts.
If you're going to work with small pieces of wood, 2-3 inches,
chance are they're gonna get pullted out of your hands. In that case,
either find some other way of doing what you want to do, or use some
sort of fixture to hold it - no advise on a fixture, because anything
that small I don't do on the router.

This is a great gloat! My dad wouldn't have called, wouldn't have
looked/noticed, and probably wouldn't have been in a charity shop
in the first place. Oh yes - the £10 router table - that's a
gloat too!

Congratulations to both you and your Dad!
Take time to check it over carefully and use it safely
(Woodworking's much easier with all ten fingers and both eyes!)
Well, you might try a spectacles box with /perfect/ joints now
that you have the equipment for it ;-)
