Milling table. It is a common occurrence that ordinary tables are used to work with a milling machine. But they do not allow you to reliably fix the router, which threatens uneven work. There is a special milling table that you can make yourself. It will be much more comfortable and convenient to work on it than on a regular one, but more often than not, many do not want to buy a factory milling table.
It is very expensive and unprofitable, because it is much easier to make it yourself. When using this table with a hand router when working with wood, you can get results that are no worse than professional manufacturers.
With the help of a table, a hand mill will be able to process not only wood, but also chipboard, MDF panels, plastic and so on. And also make decorative work, make holes, grooves, slots, edge processing and make a groove.
You won't need a lot of money to make a milling table with your own hands, but you can handle wood processing just as well as a professional one.
Before starting work, the router should be fixed on a special workbench, this is required to securely fix the tool.
A cutout should be made on the side of the right side, there will be a button there when you press which the tool will turn on and off.
Drill a hole in the box for the vacuum cleaner hose. It will perform the function of removing garbage.
For a hand router, it is recommended to use the workbench that you already have.
But to reduce vibrations, for greater stability, it is better to build another structure. The surface on which the router will be located must also be very stable. After all, it is on it that the main load is distributed, it is made of metal pipes, corners or chipboard.
There must be a free space under the table top as there will be a router mechanism. It attaches with a rigid, metal plate.
You should start working through the thickness of a special installed plate. Round sharp corners. And thanks to the depth of the countertop, the plate will be on the same level with it. A hole is required in the middle of the plate for a milling machine. We attach with screws.
We begin to make a frame for the base, for more convenient work, the tabletop should go out to a distance of 10-20 cm. The height of the frame should be about 85-90 cm, this optimal height corresponds to the height of an average person, for more convenient work with a manual machine. For convenience, we mount adjusters from the bottom of this constructor so that you can adjust the height you need.
The main thing in the manufacture of a table is the dimensions and dimensions of the installed machine. That is, it can be a large unit in the center of the tabletop, or a separate milling tool.
The thickness for the plate should be taken a little less than the table top to enhance cutting. But for all its small thickness, it must be very strong. It is best to make it out of metal. The normal thickness is 0.6 cm.
The plate should be in the shape of a rectangle with a small hole in the middle for connecting to the milling machine and for fastening. For a more accurate installation, you must first draw a plan with all the parameters and place it on the table for comparison.
