Hitachi KM12VC on PC Router Table?

[Mike Pond]

Found an inexpensive Porter-Cable 698 router table at a yard sale. Anyone know if the Hitachi KM12VC can be mounted on (under) the table?

Mike - There should be no reason that the Hitachi wouldn't fit, even if it needed minor modifications to the sub-base, but you may find that the table has a number of frustrating characteristics and limitations. That's the size and type of router table I started with and couldn't get rid of fast enough.

A router table can be an incredibly simple device to build in your shop.

BTW, that little Hitachi kit is a heck of a bang for the buck IMO.

Good luck!

Guess I'll be looking for a way to attach a router table to the Ridgid R5411 I just purchase...
