That looks great

@allent555 28 днів тому

Great build / video! Really like your concept too! Suggest making a shelf with a solid 45 degree support angle for the power feeder. This would eliminate the flex and you still wouldn’t have to drill the table top.

Router table and cabinet looks awesome. I have been binge watching your videos for tips. In 2 weeks I gotta rebuild a full kitchen layout for my aunt. I’ve only built cabinets for myself. So this will be interesting

@PaxtonSanders 7 місяців тому

Nice build. I'm glad you kept in the problem with the power feeder. It really is informative for me, at least, to see what works AND what doesn't work.

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Thanks for the great feedback! 👍🏻

@Geppetto04 7 місяців тому

Great video… glad to see you putting out new content. I have a new Jessem router table and now I know what to do next.

@jumpinjimmy69 7 місяців тому

That’s awesome!! I wish I had one like that. Building cupboards and work bench in my garage, would be great to have a hardware jig to assist with my finishing touches!!!

@dtork47 7 місяців тому

Great build, I need one! Thanks, stay safe.

@Bfridlund 7 місяців тому

Great router table build. I don’t have a CNC or 3D Printer so I’ll have to drill the holes at 2 different sizes. Keep showing us your builds, they are inspiring.

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Thanks for the great feedback! I do sell the router bit storage inserts if your interested. And far as the CNC goes you don’t have to have one to drill precise holes! I just got that machine in the shop so I was just pumped to use it and try it out 👍🏻

@keithplumley2054 7 місяців тому

It's greatly to see you upload a new video. I'll probably do this project in the near future although probably not with a Woodpecker router table. Budget constraints you know. I just wanted to say thanks for the education. I've never built cabinets before but watching your videos and using your tips I've managed to build new cabinets for our kitchen and my wife loves them. I've been working on it all year so far and am about halfway done. Being retired and living in north Georgia it gets too hot in my shop to spend much time there. Now that the weather is cooling off I'm looking forward to getting the kitchen finished. I looked at dozens of videos on UKposts to learn what I needed but I found myself coming back to your videos every time I needed to work out a problem. Keep up the good work and again, thank you for the education.

Sick setup and great build video.

@mikejackson2888 7 місяців тому

Nice set up, one day that will be a setup I can have. Right now my router table is attached to the end of my table saw. I keep dreaming

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

It really makes a huge difference having all the storage! I almost added a router table to my Tablesaw wing to conserve space!

@jimrosson6702 7 місяців тому

Very cool router table turned out great looks amazing

@michaeldean2053 7 місяців тому

Great job. Loved the build.

@chartnett0627 7 місяців тому

Looks awesome man. Those black and red bit holders match perfectly.

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Thanks for the great feedback and I agree 👍🏻

@stephenwilliams4118 6 місяців тому

Great to see you back posting

@Boog7625 4 місяці тому

Love the look of the cabinet. I have used Grizzly power feeds for years. Very nice addition when working by yourself.

@michaelgutierrez6564 7 місяців тому

I just purchased an employee myself. Looking forward to getting it all set up when I find the time.

@rickchichester9327 7 місяців тому

Awesome build

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Thank you 🙏🏻

@RUSSWILSONII 7 місяців тому

This is a timely video for me! Thanks for the ideas!

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Glad I could help 👍🏻

@nickolasfordley5105 7 місяців тому

great router table build. I love that you utiize every bit of open space you had efficiently.

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

That was the whole goal 🤙🏼

@mikeh4924 7 місяців тому

Great build and great video! I just did my router table too. For anyone else out there, you can use a straight edge and a razor blade to score the acrylic and then snap it. Table saw is faster, but its a good alternative if you want to avoid those chips shooting back at you.

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Thanks for the feedback and pro tip 👍🏻

@robb9079 7 місяців тому

So glad to see another video, love your content man, you do excellent work and do a great job explaining what you're doing. Looking forward to the next one!

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Thanks man I really appreciate the great feedback 👍🏻

@skylier36 7 місяців тому

Great video, your design along with a few others are giving some good inspiration for how to set up my shop.

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Glad to hear that 🙏🏻

@jimrodman2378 7 місяців тому

Nice build

@Sebastopolmark 7 місяців тому

Nuttin wrong with that. Nice to have the roller base to work off of! !! !!!

@FearsomeWarrior 7 місяців тому

Some triangle braces going down the back of cabinet might be enough to get the rigidity you want. Very fun seeing your shop. Love the lights. I wired my shop to have two light switches that control even and odd rows of lights. Works out great if I just don’t need them. I want to add a under cabinet workbench light like you have done.

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Funny thing I added a triangle brace and it helped some but didn’t get rid of all the flex! And yes I love the lights makes a huge difference 👍🏻

@dandugan824 7 місяців тому

Nice!!!

functional and looks great

@matthewwolan1247 29 днів тому

🤣......."tight the way I like it".....

@carterscustomrods Місяць тому

22:04 raise your blade higher. That way when it cuts the chips move downward rather than outward. This is why plastic cutting blades have high tooth counts and positive hooks (20° or so). But a rip blade will do just fine, nut you will want to move it slowly. Another option is to sandwich the plexiglass between two pieces of this scrap. I do this with aluminum and plastic when I want a pristine cut.

@dublinf4477 7 місяців тому

I way over thought this. Have a similar table and the plywood on the sides was nowhere near square to the bottom. Had to use spacers etc. then the bolts for the frame got in the way. You made it look pretty easy. Mine is been a bit of a challenge.

@louisclarkeii 7 місяців тому

RIGHT ON HOMIE! Go big with the next CNC…. ShopBot is right around the corner…. Not sure what the table Is made of but make a new top to add the power feeder.

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Well I would love a larger CNC but inventables reached out to me and sent this for me to try out. Big things coming so stay tuned! I will be getting a bigger one 👀

@phillippearce9680 7 місяців тому

👍

@matthewwolan1247 29 днів тому

could you just straddle a piece of wood at back of table behind the fence and use the T Tracks to mount feeder?

@Benmeglei1 Місяць тому

Hey brother. Great video. Quick question for you, what kind of router is that? Is that the spindle rite that’s in the woodpeckers package? Thank you for your time. Cheers👊🏻

@forster46 7 місяців тому

Where did you get the file for the brackets to hold the Y fitting?

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

I designed and 3d print them! If your interested in them I could send you the file? 👍🏻

@mrstephentgarrett 7 місяців тому

Its an amazing build... my one critique, and maybe it's my OCD, is the vertical handles... i just feel they look out of place. Amazing video though

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Haha to each is own! I struggled with how I wanted them but in the end I felt that was best 👍🏻

@PaulCiura 7 місяців тому

Sweet setup. I want to get one of these power feeders at some point. Built my router table from scratch with the Incra fence. One of my favorite tools in the shop for sure.

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Thanks for the feedback! The mini power feeder is awesome 👍🏻

@TarheelTad64 7 місяців тому

What is that hold down called you got on your tablesaw

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

It’s called Jessem stock guides! They are fantastic 👍🏻 I’ll add it to the list of tools in the description!

@TarheelTad64 7 місяців тому

Thanks that thing is awesome I never seen anyone use that before I've seen the finger hold downs @@eastcarolinawoodworks

@12982blackjack 7 місяців тому

Saw the Fein dust extractor in the background and I thought you were a green brand guy? LOL But seriously, I've been trying to decide between the Festool or cheaping out with the Fein. I like the hose, hose storage, and sustainer stacking ability of the Festool. Any opinion on which one?

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Definitely go festool! Inventables sent me their X Carve Pro CNC machine and it came with the Fein extractor so I use it for the CNC. It does a good job but I like my Festool 🤙🏼

@spectrumwoodworksllc5359 3 місяці тому

Hey brother 2 questions, CNC? How do you like those drawer slides? The reviews make me wonder, but KV (which I've used for years, have gotten out of line price wise. Thank you sir!!!

@johnlewis4830 6 місяців тому

Just out of curiosity, where do you get your cabinet grade 3/4" hardwood plywood. Is there any difference in what can be bought at a big box store as opposed to a specialty shop?

@eastcarolinawoodworks 6 місяців тому

I get mine from a supplier in town. Sometimes you can get decent plywood from big box stores but it’s hit or miss 👍🏼

@trebeyar96 7 місяців тому

Great video as usual. I'm curious if you'll need some additional vent holes in the router box to help dust collection. I'm getting ready to start my router table build. 👍

@eastcarolinawoodworks 7 місяців тому

Thanks for the great feedback and yes I plan on doing that I just didn’t think to do it for the video! Great idea and I’m right there with you 👍🏻

@spectrumwoodworksllc5359 3 місяці тому

OOPS, I did see the CNC Brand, lol must have turned around for a minute.
