6-step Router Plate Installation

Router Plate

6-step

Installatio Locate Guide Strips. After making the guide strips,

you’re ready to locate the opening. To do this, use

double-sided tape to position one of the guide strips

so it’s parallel with one edge of where you’d like the

plate located. Then use the insert plate to locate the

other strips, as shown in Step 1.

Cut Opening. Once you have the guide strips

located, you’re ready to cut the opening by follow-

ing Steps 2 through 5. With the opening complete, all

that’s left to do to complete the installation is mount

the router to the insert plate. Most insert plates are

predrilled to match your router. If your plate isn’t

drilled, just take a look at Step 6.

The biggest challenge to making any router tabletop

is cutting an opening for the insert plate so that it ﬁ ts

perfectly. To answer that challenge when it came to

building the ultimate router table, I used a foolproof

method that doesn’t require any tedious measuring

or layout. Just a few common shop tools. The nice

thing about this method is you can use it to create an

opening for any size or type of plate.

Template & Guide Strips. This method works

because you use the actual plate as a template for

positioning a set of strips that guide a pattern bit

when you’re cutting the opening. Note: Most pattern

bits will require 1"-thick strips.

Step 1

To locate the guide strips, use the

insert plate as a template. Start by

fastening one strip in place with

carpet tape so it’s parallel with one

edge of where the plate is to be

located. After positioning the plate

along this strip so it’s in its final

location, you can “wrap” the plate

with the remaining guide strips.

Step 2

To provide a starting point for the

bit and create relief holes for dust,

drill a 1 1 / 2 "-dia. hole in each corner.

A hole saw works great for this,

but you’ll need to wrap the body

with masking tape to compensate

for the set of the teeth, as you can

see in detail ‘a.’ Once the teeth cut

through the laminate, remove the

tape and complete the hole.

Step 3

Before routing the lip, set the bit

depth to match the exact thickness

of the insert plate. To do this, mount

the pattern bit in the router. Then

place the insert plate on top of a

guide strip. Set the router on the

plate and lower the bit until it barely

touches the top (see detail). If you

rout too deep, see the margin for a

quick fix. (For access plate, set bit

for 1 / 4 "-deep cut.)

Step 4

At this point, set the bit into the

opening in one of the corners so the

router is resting on the guide strips.

Then use the strips to guide the

bearing on the bit (see detail) as you

rout around the inside of the strips

in a clockwise direction. Note: To

maintain the radius in the corners,

rout only to the edge of starter holes.

(For access plate, make multiple 1 / 4 "-

deep passes through plate.)

Once the lip has been routed,

you’re ready to remove the waste.

A jig saw makes quick work of

this. All you need to do is follow

the inside edge of the groove

formed when you routed the lip

(see detail). A little sanding will

clean up the rough edges.

Step 6

All that’s left is to attach the router

to the mounting plate. This requires

drilling holes for the machine

screws that hold it in place. An

easy way to locate the holes for

the screws is to use the existing

base on your router. (I used carpet

tape to keep the base from shifting,
