Reason - i am building a custom cabinet for the table and got the jessem top and master lift... Let me acknowledge that i knew there were two main issues going into this:
1) the router table has a single track running side to side, instead of two running front to back for clamping etc
2) i have a big aluminum plate in the middle instead of a small hardwood insert/cutout
That said:
1) i was thinking about buying some t-track from rockler and mounting two sections from back of table to the existing track... If i do this, can i router-dado these without tearing the laminate (would probably try to chisel close to the existing track)?
2) I have several sized white plastic inserts for the blue plate... I could use a pattern bit, etc to make similar ones out of hardwood / mdf
3) anyone know if the angled dust collector Rockler sells for the DP table will fit on the rail they sell with the router tables (mine is a few years old, but assuming its the same). called Rockler, they didn't want to grab one out of inventory to check :(
thx
