- This lift will work with any router that has a 3.5 inch body but I use this one and I love it: amzn.to/49QfwWo
Here is the template I used to cut out the housing. You should probably verify that the print out scales correctly and that the radius matches your router-body.

One of the easiest, straight forward builds. Just my kind. Thanks.
This is the most straight forward design I’ve seen. Love it !
One of the absolute best home-made router lifts. Also one of the best videos showing the build. A special thumbs up for no annoying music. Also subscribed!!!
Simplicity at its best. I love it. Well done.
One of the easiest, solid, router lifts I've seen. I'm going to make me one too
Best Router Lift so far. And your productions are great.
Well done AK. Beats $300 +, and works well for the amateurs. Thanks for posting.
Wow! There's a ton of DIY lifts on youtube. Most are pretty nice, with all kinds of extra features, but this right here is easily the least intimidating in cost, required tools, and skill level. Just brilliant.
Just what the doctor ordered. Thank you!
Seen many other videos on router lift. This is the best one. Thank you for this idea sir
brilliant idea and fast as well.best thing about this it's not complicated or expensive. well done
Brilliant, very simple and easy to build. Easy to operate
Simplest version of a router lift I have seen....thank you for putting this on youtube!
Thanks.... this is genius! I built this and installed in my tablesaw wing today... it's really great! TY TY TY
Awesome man. That has to be the simplest/most useful lift I've come across yet. Well done!
you're right.. out of 20 this is the one...simple and efective and more important with access from the top. gotta love that
This is a great video. I am about half way done with my own router lift. This will make a great difference on my routing tasks, Thanks!
I've watched so many videos on this subject, always overcomplicated, this just summed up my thinking and it's really not difficult or complicated to build a router lift. I'm definitely building something along these lines, thank you!
Good idea on the runner. Most other builds require some precision work. This looks so simple.
That moment that the first screw sucks the router mount to the table, so satisfying.
Enjoyable video😎
I enjoyed you video so much you don't blab blab blab like some guys and your a great woodworker. Keep up the good work
Simple and elegant solution. Well done!!
Nice simple lift,great job! That's the one for me with a few mods.
Damned good vid. A simple design, well narrated and constructed. That's the one I'm gonna make for my router table.
You just got yourself another subscription. Thanks for sharing a great job.

agreed
Excellent! Simple and practical. I’m going to make this as well.
Thank you
I believe that this is the best most doable Router Lift unit that I have seen as of yet! Iv'e seen a lot of them! No Welding required! Just simple tools and a Drill Press! Great Design! Seems that the success of this Lift is based on 2 factors! 1. Quality wood! (Plywood) and 2. Fantastic Design! ..Bingo! You have a new Subscriber!
Great design, best that I have seen !
Great job..I will be making this for my table.
Really cool! Great stuff! Love the drill lift mechanism. Love the dogs at the beginning of the video.
The best one I have seen so far
Nice and simple. Great job!
Thanks Ari, for sharing your ideas, the design of yours is something I can get my head around! I have the time to play! This well fit my budget as well! I will let you know how do ! Thanks again for sharing Regards BobLee
Das ist wirklich perfekt gebaut. Super! Dafür einen Daumen hoch (Thumbs up)
Very nice video! I really like this design. I'm building a new table saw cart for my jobsite saw (hobby shop...no space), and have looked at several options to integrate a router lift. I really like this design...simple and effective, while maintaining a small footprint. My new cart will have an integrated plenum for dust collection (I'm planning to have my table saw, planer, and router all in one cart), and I think I can easily adapt this design to connect it to the dust collection.
Excellent idea, thanks for sharing.
Great job! Two thumbs up 👍👍
Great! Thanks for sharing this idea
Yup this is what I will do! Thanks
Super simple - great job
Great solution mate! Thanks
great job and design!
Awesome video thanks for sharing this great info and explaining it so well!!
Very good job, thumbs up. Greetings from Germany
very good, very nice, very simple! good job!
Simple and easy I lime it ill, give it ago iam first time user of a router. Thanks
That’s neatly done
Very good solution... Big hug from Brasil Said Choucair
Nice design . I think I’ll give this a try.
same here
Simple and best idea
Great bro
Nice design. Others I've seen rely on the use of a plunge router. This is a great design for a fixed router (like mine). One modification I may make to your design is to delete the double-nut connection at the bottom of the lift screw. In its place I plan a single nut and then cross drill the nut & the lift screw and hold the nut in place with a roll pin. Your inclusion of the template is most appreciated. Thank you!
Oh yeah, liked & subscribed!
Genau was ich gerade suche. Sehr einfacher Aufbau.👍👍👍
Cool invention bro, I’m a believer I’ve subbed
great vid. excellent design and execution.. may make one.. but really all i need is a holder.. i got and old super powerful bosch 90300M 3.5 hp.. 24k revos.. need to set it up for a half dovetail joint..single use station. no further movement.. original holder base with handles extremely hard to find..
Great video easy to follow
Best and easiest homemade Router Lift on youtube
Nicely done Ari! You now have another new subscriber................. :)
Super simple trick. thank sir
Working on my version of this lift. This is simpler than the Steve Ramsey one from a Woodsmith design. My router is the big 3 1/2 horse from porter cable and the body is ~ 4 and 3/16th's diameter - - - - for those who have the big porter cable beast! So had to make a few changes for that size. Thanks for the inspiration!
You wear so much plaid fleece we might have to make you an honourary Canadian... :)
Love this, will be stealing. Thanks!
The socket. :) That's what fits onto a ratcheting wrench.
nicely done!!
Very good and thank you!
Excelente! , gracias a tu video
Parabéns ficou perfeito
Thanks, terrific!
very very nice man
Two critiques- no lock on the ht. means whatever play is in your tracks will plague you when making heavy cuts where a few thou is a big deal. Second it looks like the wt of the router is pushing against the T nut. Moving that to the bottom would solve that.
very simple idea.
Just found this channel. You sound exactly like Frank Howarth, I had to do a double take.
Big job
A nice video and great concept, I've subscribed to your channel too
Sir, very impressed.

Do you have blue prints⁉, please.
Thanks, sir👍
👍 you need more vids up. (Well we do!)
Nice and simple design. Thanks - I would like to copy pretty much exactly as you have made it. Perhaps add some dust extraction and enclose the box(with extraction also). Routing is a messy business!! Cheers from Sunny Coast in Queensland... Australia, where the weather is always nice!!
I'm thinking about making another video with an update and a new build correcting some minor issues.
Good design, every other lift out there takes a team of engineers to build.
You're right, they makes it seems they are genius.
Excellent video. excellent production value. Great idea. The one suggestion I would make though, is to show the finished product at the beginning of the video so people know what you're actually working towards. Otherwise it looks like somebody cutting up wood. Would be nice to have a better look at the finished product.
Great router lift.... Do you have plans available?
new subs here.amazing sir.
Very nice
Fantastic Very good Brasil 🇧🇷🇺🇸
great build, did you ever post the plans? would love to build my own
That was cool
This is the simplest, yet most effective router lift I've seen, Ari - no frills or furbelows. I note (as with many of this type of build, you've stripped out the motor from your DeWalt router frame - certainly convenient. Out of interest, what diameter bolts have you employed for the clamp - 8mm ? The carriage too, is uber simple. I've subscribed on the strength of this video, alone.
Finally (& perhaps it's me, but your intonation is that of Tom Hanks - apologies, perhaps you get that a lot - but it made me smile :D ). Enjoy the remainder of your week !!
very easy and not messy at all for the intended work. Great work and thanks for sharing! you don't secure the lift bolt to bottom plate with a counter nut on other side?
BEAUTIFUL job! Where did you get the Template for the router clamp/holder?
Super good and simpele, do You have The Building plans of it For me?
hello very good video, a question: that way you do not get sawdust inside the machine?
Awesome
Yours is a simple plan. Not as complicated as others I've seen. Where did you get the plans for this or did you make them?
Zenith Very nice! It would be helpful if you started by showing the finished unit.
At the beginning of the video you had some paper printout used to make the clamp assembly. Where did you get that? Is that something you found?
GREAT!
Definitely the best DIY router lift I've seen so far. What size threaded rod did you use for the lifting mechanism? I was going to go 3/8-16 so I would know that every turn is 1/16" ? But would 3/8" be enough? I dont see it bending at all, but maybe I'm wrong?
(I'm new to this. Only have use of right side of my body after 8 years bound to a bed, and woodworking will be my rehab-hobby in the hope I can get more function to my right hand.)
Thanks for the video btw. Sub'd and liked!
Great video , where can I get the plans from to build this ?
Hi T.J Miller!
Do you have plans for this by chance? Nice work, by the way.
Have you had problems with dewalt and dust in motor on a table setup?
Mine was having issues, opened it up and it was packed full of dust. And I use 2 way dust collection on my table that I made. My bosch hasn't had same issue.
I sent Dw618 to get full serviced, and once it gets back, I'm putting a filter of some type around it. Perhaps a system that pulls in air from elsewhere, still undecided. Either way, it didnt seem well suited to be below a table inverted like that.
Looks like a simple and solid design. How has it held up over time and does humidity effect how performs?
good work. the only problem is going to be the t-nut
WV591 Yup - one of these days the running router is going to disappear below the table and maybe even wind up on the floor.
Wow
good
I'm just curious, as you enclosed the router with that thick wood, it doesn't overheat ?
