i found using 30 x 90m for the base saved a little weight and marginally reduced the size. And to make the cut easier I cut the front at about 35 degrees
I made my fence from t-slot several years ago, and it's great. For my fence, I used two 2"×2" (2020 US) stacked. I was able to use one long piece on top, and two shorter pieces on the bottom. This gave me 2' of bit clearance right away. But the biggest advantage was being able to use the square aluminum 2020 as a dual dust collector on both sides. It pulls dust through the extrusion. I went with a 1030 flat behind the fence. The 1/4" aluminum angle was just wayyyy top heavy. A few 10 series angle brackets and you're good to go. It's been almost 5 years, and it's still mint. It's so precise, I use it instead of a jointer to edge wood.
I recently upgraded my fence to a 10 series 2"×4" t-slot with a 1"×3" rear base. And to save weight, i just used 4 gusseted 90° supports . Basically, if youre not using aluminum t-slot on every jig and precision system in the shop, id recommend getting staryed asap!

How did the interior dust collection end up working? I noticed that the chamber is mostly sealed, not leaving much space for air inflow. Attaching it on the bottom instead of the back seems like a great idea though.
Why doesn't anyone making these fences on CZcams, use their router to make the fence cut-outs? The bits are tungsten, the speed is variable...I don't get it?
Grüße nach Berlin. Nice project, very usefull for me because I´m about to build a router table myself. Are you still happy with the suhner engine (instead of e. g a trend t14 or triton)? The fence seems to have a minimal offset (left side slightly higher than right side): Is this due to the holes in the aluminum profile on the backside?
Danke Till, das freut mich! Also inklusive dem Fräsmotor und dem Fräserlift beläuft sich der Materialpreis auf ca. 1.300-1.400€. Kommt natürlich auf die Bezugsquellen an und für das Multiplex variiert der Preis ja aktuell sehr stark...
Nice job. However, I don't understand why you put the 45 in the fence. Even if you left them at 90, when you split the fence, it would still make room for the bit and allow dust collection to work. So, why did you need the 45 cut? Am I missing something?
With a 90° cut there a small bit of dust in the back would prevent the fence from closing. But the bighest reason is when you want to have the fence not past the center of the bit and close it as tight as possible. With a 90° you are limited to the radius of the bit plus a little for clearance. With the 45° you can close the fence more. Do you follow? Pretty hard to put into words 😅🙈
Well it can be done for sure. There are also blades for aluminum. However I am not the biggest fan of doing it on the table saw and hence took out the jigsaw...
It is not 'ultimate' if you have to adjust it by hand. See my digital fence, coupled to a digital lift- dial in your settings and it goes there. Make complex joints without needing to set anything- just press the button for the next position- all the math done for you.
Best router table and immaculate dust collection I have ever seen.
Thank you for sharing.

What safety glasses and plugs are you using? I see that it's some sort of attachment.
Beautiful and professional looking router table. Love the light in the router box. Makes a functional woodworking machine almost a piece of art.
Yeah the light is quite fun and when you need to make adjustments to the motor it is helpful too.
Thanks Larry!

Fantastic job!
Love the details, can‘t wait for your next projects 💪
Thanks buddy! New projects and videos are already on the way! 😉
This is great, love the idea of making your own fence!!
Thanks Daniel! It is actually not that hard and you can make it the way you need it 👍

Really nice work amigo! I just ordered the plans to support this channel!
That is great, Jose.
Thank you so much for your support!
Hope you'll enjoy building your version and let me know how it turns out 😉
Hello from France.
Very good job.
Beautiful router table.
Thanks a lot! And greetings back to France!

Pimp my Router. Noice. This guy has the most expensive collection of power tools I've ever seen.
Good job :)
Thanks

the size of the aluminum profile
sure would like to know your source on the aluminum. Thanks Ted
Hey Ted,
They are Item aluminum profiles. Don't know where you are located but they are pretty standard. In the US they are also called 80/20

Hi Fabian
Hi Sascha 🤗
Tolle Videos! Was schätzt du, wie hoch sind die Kosten für diesen Frästisch am Ende zusammen?😃
Danke Till, das freut mich!
Also inklusive dem Fräsmotor und dem Fräserlift beläuft sich der Materialpreis auf ca. 1.300-1.400€. Kommt natürlich auf die Bezugsquellen an und für das Multiplex variiert der Preis ja aktuell sehr stark...
Sehr cooles Video kam jetzt erst dazu es zu Ende zu schauen wegen den Kindern
Danke dir! Dann hoffe ich, dass die Kinder nun friedlich schlafen 😉

Would the cutting of the dust port be advisable on a table with a scrap blade?
Well it can be done for sure. There are also blades for aluminum. However I am not the biggest fan of doing it on the table saw and hence took out the jigsaw...
@@BauWoodworks Thank you.
@@michaelbaykara2322 🤗👍
Do you realize you could have cut the fence with one 45° cut, and not 3 risk cuts?
When reading your comment, yes I realize it. I didn't realize it when I was doing the cuts, obviously. Thanks for mentioning 👍
