Some routers have a height fine adjustment screw accessible through the base plate, some even come with a wrench for turning it, so if its upside down, you can just adjust it from the top like what was built on that page. A problem with both approaches though is that the plunge mechanism has some play in it, so it's not ideal for this job.
- kleiba 6y agoMaybe it's worthwhile linking to your assessment of John Heisz' router table here: https://woodgears.ca/reader/router_table.html https://woodgears.ca/reader/router_table.html
- kleiba 6y agoI guess I should have posted a link to John Heisz' own very detailed article on his router table build, too: https://ibuildit.ca/projects/router-table/ https://ibuildit.ca/projects/router-table/
- linsomniac 6y agoMy Bosch definitely has play, but it also has a lock. So I always adjust "up" (bringing the tool up into the workpiece), and then lock it in place. The lock is a collar, and once you lock it in place it's not going anywhere. Kind of like guitar tuning, "always tune up to the note".
