Can any one tell me if they have found Norm's plans and video to be much help in building his router table?
Thanks much.

Only for general dimensions, I changed almost all of the joinery on mine.

That's how I used them too.
And didn't build his fence.

Never bought the video so I can't comment on it.
The plans were OK but had several dimensional errors. Probably corrected now, that was about 10 years back. A good solid basic design.

I really enjoyed watching Norm build his first table many years ago and his latest version more recently. Recorded them as they were aired. I have found the recordings to be useful for ideas and construction details. I have not used the NYW plans because I knew I would want to make many mods to suit my needs and there are so many great ideas, improvements and adaptations on the web. I built mine without plans and couldn't be happier, however I did spend a lot of time planning the details. I have a few pics here:

My only regret is that I didn't build one earlier !
Regards and good luck,

About 8 years ago or so.... my Norm based router table was my first attempt at building a decent looking piece. I found the plans to be invaluable.
I still have them someplace in storage too... considering making another one.
Thanks
