                Q:I need a good router table for this router, any suggestions?

                A:  I used the Bosch router table, the only problem was that you can not adjust the height of the router from on top, because the holes do not line up. Out side of that the table has worked great, however I have a new Bosch MR23EVS router on the way to me so I can fine tune my finger joint bits from on top.

                              A:  Fatty, thank you for your interest in the RIDGID 11 Amp 2 HP 1/2 in. Corded Fixed Base Router. When the router is mounted to a router table, depth adjustments can be made easily by using the supplied T-handle wrench. To make through table adjustments: Unplug the router. Loosen the lock lever. Insert the T-handle wrench through the hole in the router table into the hole on the subbase, and place the end of the wrench socket over the adjusting nut. Turn the wrench counterclockwise to decrease the depth of cut or clockwise to increase the depth of cut.
