Something new for the garage

I got a Cisco wireless router that's only as big as a salad plate, That thing is WAY old school looking.

That wood working table looks pretty cool tho.:roll: ... lol ...

Geez. I was all proud of myself for building this. Way to bring a guy down Jason.
Showoff.

I don't know it looks like a pretty well thought out project to me.

That's looks nice, but I'm going to show my stupidity here. What is it for?

Got the door built, cut the acrylic to fit, drilled four 1" holes for air inlet, installed hinges, applied some Watco Danish oil to the rails, stiles, and the door frame. Also installed a small light for the router chamber.

Does great for keeping the dust out of the inside, but I'll give the inside a few coats of clear to reduce surface friction and help the few bits of reluctant debris to move with the airflow.

Here ya go.



















:ror:

I saw this when I was researching ideas for building a router table. One of the guys added a light to his:

It not only allows you to see what you're doing when changing bits but when in use, there is surprising clarity, as you look down onto the rotating bit.

I had the light here so it went in.


Jeckler,

I was close. It looked like it was for a kids wagon but the dimensions were off for a Radio Flyer type of build.

Nice! "thumbsup"
 
Got some work done today and I'm loving this table. Having the ability to have a piece of work hang off any side is nice, but having the T-track with clamps makes it that much better. I've been clamping the work down with the T-track and clamps and just letting it hang of the edge for cuts. Clamped the Kreg pocket hole jig to the bench and made short work of a big drawer tonight.

Plenty of table means plenty of support for large items on the router. Since I'm cutting with the circular saw, I'm cutting slightly oversize and then using a straightedge and a template bit to trim all the pieces to their exact sizes. Routed this assembled drawer as you see it.

That was a good time to see how well the dust collection setup is working.

Here's the inside of the router chamber. Clean. :D

The top side was messy, but that will be much cleaner when the fence gets here and I get it installed.

Got the biggest drawer installed on 22" full-extension slides. Built it from 3/4 maple/birch ply for the bottom and 1/2 for the sides and back. Most likely overkill, but I don't want it to sag. I have another set of slides to go on. These are rated at 75lbs so a little redundancy won't hurt. This is 32" wide, 23" deep, and 8" tall. All of my DeWalt 18V stuff fits in here with room for other large items.
