Router tables are expensive and small. Enhance your shop with an expanding router table. Folded down it takes up 29.5”x 24” but can expand out to 86” long and to top it off it's cost effective!
This build is perfect for those looking to save space in a smaller shop or garage.
It's designed for the Powertec universal mounting plate which fits almost any router.
Make the build easy and fast with the custom template and dust collector kit

This is one of a few plans I've downloaded from here. Love my miter saw expanding table too. Not only does it give more support when using the tool, it doubles as a work surface. Plans are well laid out and you can follow along with the video (time spot is included in the instructions) if you need help.
Very easy to follow plans even if you are a rookie learning. You do need a couple of specific tools and accessories (like specific router bits, router, etc.) before starting the project but no big deal; you can never have enough tools. Small recommendation from someone that is unexperienced in pocket holes: if you can improve a little the drawings of the position of the holes and the directions they are going into another part, the better. Again, that's for me, this was my first-ever project using pocket holes. Besides that, plans are very easy to follow and the color codes made the difference for me to fully understand and follow the instructions. Definitely recommend!! HAPPY CUSTOMER!!!
Plans are Great, but more written instruction would be great. I have to leave the shop to watch the videos when I have Questions.
