Are you able to raise and lower the router (Bosch 1617) from the top of the table?

Yes, but you need to drill a hole to access the adjustment. Then you just put the Allen wrench through the table too when you need to. Don't be turned off by having to drill a hole, it's quick, easy, and the too already has a ton of them.

You could figure out how to do it, I'm sure, but I wouldn't recommend it. My own opinion is that you need a router with a little more guts to stick in a router table. This one is really for more delicate work, like mortising hinges or routing in inlay.

Well,I mounted mine onto a stable table,then bolted it down.This way you have the stability of the router table not moving or shifting in the process of work.For using the table while traveling to work site,I would recommend it be placed on another object were it is more stable,so vibration,doesnt interfer with movement.

I have never had a problem like that. When I bought my router table I also bought a router lift to go with it. The router is the only thing on this lift and I have never had a problem with either. Suggest Mr. Lai buy a good lift mechanism and also keep the entire system vacuumed good.

No...you cannot move the shelf up higher. You can leave it off...but the table may not be as steady.

The kreg router table comes with a mounting plate that you can template to fit any router. They also sell mounting plates that are pre drilled for different routers. I have a triton three and one quarter horse router that is adjustable from the top. No lift plate required to make adjustments from the top.

I'm afraid not, Paula. And I can't imagine it being worth your time to fabricate some larger surface around that Dremel table (issues of flatness not to mention the crappy fence mechanism). Bench-top router tables like the Bosch don't take up much space, if that's your concern. If you're working on a tight budget, save the money you'd spend for the Dremel table and put it towards a router and router table.

I can't say with 100% certainty, but there are two ways to attach a router to this table, and I was able to attach my Bosch router to it just fine.

Thank you for your question. You would still need to lock the clamp from under the table. Once it is locked you can adjust the bit height with the above table hex T-wrench. If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499).

You can adjust the legs of the top or bottom of the table higher than the other. That would be the only way to do it.

Yes. It raises and lowers - I measured the lowest setting and it is 26.25" from the top of the arm to the floor.

That is what I did, as I wanted to use this to support my bench top router table and it works great. Just the right height for my application and didn't affect the sturdiness of the table.

As far as I can tell the height adjustment has to be made below the table. Changing bits can be done in with the router in the table.PS I like the router a lot and have never come close to overloading it. I looked at the competition and this was by far the best deal.

I never used it on router table,but it seen to be a good question,maybe we can think about it!

I have a craftsman router mounted to the table and used the bolts from the router to mount it to the table. Just remove the face plate. J.S.

No I did not have this problem at all. The router easily attaches under the fixed base under the table. Look at some YouTube Videos how to mount the router under the table. Hope it helps. Good Luck.

You use your own router. This product only raises and lowers your router. It does not include a router.
