If you mount your router table under a work table with sturdy swing-up appliance hardware, it will take only a few seconds to get your router table into action—and only a few more to put it away. You’ll need a 16-in. space under the table for hard-ware clearance, plus the height of your router’s housing. Plan your installation so the table and your workbench meet flush so you have plenty of infeed and outfeed support. Planning a new workbench? Design it to fit this pull-up table and you’ll take the dread out of routing jobs, where half the battle is setting up the table. The hardware is avail-able from Rockler Woodworking and Hardware.
