I am looking for a good quality/value router table.
Has anyone had any experience with the RM 405 (from Router Maniac - "RouterTableDepot.com) or the RM 605. I am interested in making sure the table and fence are flat/straight, stable over time and without sag of the acrylic insert.
On one hand I would be looking towards the RM 405 with the larger fence (4 inch by 4 inch by 33 inch aluminum core, vs the smaller fence on the RM 605 which has a 3 inch by 3 inch by 24 inch core.
On the other hand the table on the $240 RM 605 appears that it might be more stable over time with the edging in maple vs just what appears to be melamine edging on the less expensive $169 RM 405.
Any guidance or other suggestions would be much appreciated.
Many thanks, Chuck:confused:
