Product Review
The router is arguably the workshops most versatile portable power tool. And you can further enhance its versatility with the Bench Dog 40-001 Benchtop Router Table, which converts a portable router into a stationary, mini-shaper. The benchtop table allows you to perform a wide variety of routing operations that would be imprecise or dangerous to do with a handheld router, including routing dadoes, rabbets, grooves, slots, mortise-and-tenon joints, and raised panels.
The Bench Dog 40-001 Benchtop Router Table has an ample 16-by-22-inch top thats covered with smooth, hardwearing plastic laminate. Its outfitted with an adjustable, precision-extruded aluminum fence that has T-slots for accepting various add-on accessories. Other features include a melamine cabinet, dust-extraction port, miter gauge, and a clear acrylic insert that has 12 leveling screws for quick, accurate attachment and adjustment of the router base.
Weighing approximately 35 pounds, the router table can easily be moved around the workshop and stored away when not needed. Theres some assembly required, but clear directions and all necessary hardware are provided, so putting together the router table doesnt take more than about 20 minutes. --Joseph Truini

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
The Pro Top arrived in excellent condition. Nothing lose, rubbing or parts missing. Assembly was easy as long as you follow directions. The individual components are of a very good quality. I tested the assembled unit using a Porter Cable model 6931 without any installation problem. I am impressed with the results and look forward to getting a lot of use from this invaluable addition to my growing workshop. Thank you folks at Bench Dog for a great design with exceptional features.
