Watched this 3 times now, it's time I build one myself, I love how you explain things and make it easier for us non professionals. You do good work, keep it up, you
are truly a professional.
6:50 using washers to space drawer fronts very slick but grain mismatch making my ODC red-line. Speaking of red - painting the knobs was amazing idea. Matches the T-track too.
Thank you, this showed me what I wanted to know for my own build.
I like her narration. Concise, clear, not boring or amateur sounding. Very well produced video, makes me want to work in my wood shop! Good job.
Very nice work. I built my first several router tables but sold them whenever I moved. I bought my last one to save time, but I've never liked it as much as the ones I built.
I love the way you describe your steps. Helps me understand how to do it myself. Thanks
I wish I could work with you for a week or two, just to learn everything I can. My daddy was a "rough carpenter", so he never taught me how to make things look so NICE. They'll be sturdy as hell, but not very pretty! Lol! If I had built this, it would've been all 2x4s and mdf! Haha! Keep up the great work, lady. I'm glad I found you!! You're an inspiration, I hope you know, to all us girls out there who love the hardware store more than Sephora! Do yo thang, girl!!! Love from Arkansas!
Form over function ;)
Me and your Daddy would get along great :)
I love the way you do your builds without doing a bunch of unnecessary dados and stuff. And moreover, your stuff has that special touch because of the way you do things. Your pieces look awesome! Keep it up.
Watched this a few times and I really like your design and I love the way you say drawer
Love your videos. I'm always looking for content about how to make a small shop work and your videos are so helpful for that.
Very well done Marie, it should last a lifetime. I like your choice of painting the knobs.
Thanks John. Speaking of lasting a lifetime, would you have applied a finish to the cabinet? I debated this one but was out of energy so just left it for now.
@@DIYMontreal It's purely choice. Majority of my shop cabinets are birch plywood and soft maple trim, and I've finished those with oil poly just for the amber color. They would be just as good unfinished. If your shop sees high humidity you might want to finish them just to prevent warping/movement.
good call on the red pull knobs
My favourite shop colour 😄
You are pretty talented. Nice project! (I am from Virginia and I love the way you pronounce “drawers”. )
I love your step-by-step on creating drawers!
Thanks Scott, those were fun to make!
what an expert and an amazing work
Have come across photos of your router table cabinet half a dozen times in my search for overlooked ideas preparatory to building a router table into a new saw table extension. Yours is arresting. There's no better word for it though it is also charming and friendly. What a stand out. It is a real lesson in the possibilities of shop furniture. Gush gush. Sincerely.
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it. :) Making me blush!
Nicely done. You do good work.
Excellent! And I’m pleased that you changed the color of the knobs !
Me too! Much better :)
Holy crap! I really wish I could click and give this video like 100,000 more views! You did such a good job! This is exactly what I was looking for when it came to a DIY router table, and it looks so good!! Well done!
Thanks, I really appreciate it!!!
Pretty nice table thank for making video. Yes I am a new subscriber.
Your design was simple and construction was nice. I look forward to creating a similar router table thanks for the inspiration and sharing.
Thanks, my pleasure! Enjoy the build.
Marie, great detailed video. I built the table following your video, which I watched many times and printed out the pdf. The only issue I had was with the small drawers, I did not space them out properly and wished you would have provided dimensions for those too. All in all an excellent instructional video, thanks very much. You gave me the confidence to make this. I had never used drawer slides and european hinges and they came out fine.
Very comfortable table for milling!
Sure is, I'm really enjoying it so far.
Great job Marie! I love the layout and the color contrast. Also, the upper bit drawers are a nice touch without having to add slides. I cant wait to see future videos with this table in use. Keep it up!
I'll admit I spent more time thinking about how to make those upper drawers (without loosing too much space) than I'd like to admit, but they turned out perfect, so it was worth it!
Wonderful videos especially the router table. I wish these had been available a few years ago. The entire presentation is great.
Congratulations and good luck in the future.
Awesome job looks great I agree the red looks better. Take care
Soooo much better. Thanks Thom!
very enjoyable to watch !
Here to research my own design, and I must thank you for sharing. Your table is the closest to what I am envisioning for my own. Appreciated.
Awesome, glad the video helped!
awesome! been searching for a couple of weeks for a router table build and it was worth it. Can't wait to build this
This is excellent!!!! Thankyou from Andy Australia. :D
Thanks Andy!
That is a really nice table. Simply built but so neat and effective once completed. Great work.
Thanks! I like to keep it simple and it meets all my needs + extra storage I wasn't even planning on. Super happy with the result!
@@DIYMontreal - and so your should be. It's very well executed, as is the top (which some design features I will be copying for my router table once I eventually get started on it). I really enjoyed watching both parts.
Love your work! Love your shop! ✌️🌹🇦🇺
o wow it looks so clean
Thanks!
Amazing work!!
WOW Super de belle table à toupie !!!!
Merci beaucoup!
Very nice job.
Thanks!
Best looking router table on UA-cam. Very nicely done!
Wow thanks! Appreciate you saying that! Do I win a prize? Lol just kidding. Thank you so much!
Excellent and clear. Video
Great videos. Thanks for the effort you put into these. Also, I like the way you saw "drawer."
Thanks! And lol.. you mean the way it's supposed to be said? ;)
That is a great looking cabinet for a really nice top. The reveals look very consistent on all the fronts, rare in house cabinetry now days without adjustable fronts and slides. I am looking to build a large router table and will save your video for reference. I love your accent, reminds me of one found in an area of the outer banks of North Carolina.
Thanks, I think! Not sure what people sound like in NC but I’ll be sure to lend an ear if I’m ever in the area!
Well done thanks for the knowledge..
You bet!
I am rather impressed.
Thanks!
best ever
I dig it.
Thanks again :)
Lovely job. Subscribed and liked. Quick tip. I have a similar set up. I find that the router raiser winder holes fill with saw dust. I keep a piece of plastic pipe in one of my drawers about the diameter of a drinking straw. I blow down this into the holes to clean them out. If you don't the winder key compresses the dust into the socket and it becomes hard to remove. Make sure you close your eyes when you blow!!
Awesome, thanks for the tip!
Marie - I have built my router table using a variation of a plan from Kreg. But I love how yours looks! I found your channel as I was looking for ideas on improving dust collection on my table. Your suggestions for dust collection are inspired. Thanks. I'm a subscriber now.
Awesome, thank you! Glad my video was useful :)
Marie... you are a genius. I wasn't sure about drilling holes in the back of my cabinet, but it works wonderfully!!! Thanks again. @@DIYMontreal
@@kensanders1527 Awesome! Glad it worked for you too :)
Greetings from the West-Island, great video, great work and very clear explanations. I will refer back to your video when I make my own router table. Merci beaucoup.
That thing is really nice looking, Marie!
Thanks Bruce! Like the Wood Whisperer says, if you're gonna spend lots of time with your shop furniture, might as well make it look nice!
Wow, talk about perfection 😉 Awesome work 👍
Thanks!!
great job looks great
Thanks!
This build makes me want to tear down the one I made and do one like this. Mine is much smaller and I find I need a bit more table top space. Thanks for the video. Great job!
Well that is impressive!
Thank you so much!
Looks great, reminds me of Norm Abrams cabinet from years ago. good job
Ha! So I've heard! Really need to check that out to see for myself.
Great job. Nice design young lady. Thanks.
Thanks! You get extra points for calling me young ;)
Great job
Thanks!
Great job and video.ots of new tools, jigs and goodies.
I know, I feel like a kid on Christmas, especially with all the primary colors!
Very nice
Thanks!
Amazing craftsmanship. Excellent video and I love the entire build. You make it look so simple....except when you struggled getting the cabinet off the table. Wish my wife was as handy as you. LOL.
Nice router table
I like your wood work
This is a really nice router table and video. I would suggest that since your cords will be in the area where the dust will fall and be drawn through by the vacuum you should shield the cord connection so it does not fill with dust and become a fire hazard. I really like your videos and instructions. Cindy
Thanks Cindy, I never really considered this. Not sure it’s a hazard since the dust is being sucked aways by the dust collector, but it’s something to consider.
Awesome
Thanks David!
Lol watched after and saw you had drilled them I felt such a blob lol. Enjoyed your concrete vid too.... hope to watch some more this week....... just got back from wood show in Toronto.... saw mark from Kerf tools such a nice chap and rob cod man too... he’s lives on east coast not sure where in Canada lol we’ll be productive and “Hey be careful out there”
very nice... thank you
Thanks
Результат просто супер!!!
Отличное видео и все просто и ясно! Молодец!
Great job! 😊
Great design and excellent job. Thank you for sharing. I'm going to build it!
That's great! Enjoy the build!
This is fantastic. I doubt I could do it but I really love the way you have presented the video. What thickness of ply wood are you using for the cabinet ?
Nice job!
Thanks Jay!
wow I really love this idea especially with the drawer for the sliders. Great work keep it up!!
Thanks!
@@DIYMontreal Yes, I noticed 'drawers' too! :) (I'm N Irish.) Very clearly explained: including the distances for the T-tracks was especially useful.
Nice work! 👍
Much appreciated!
Great project!
Thank you!
Nice job.
Great job Marie! Looks amazing. I think this is next after I finish my camp kitchen.
Yay, then I could have a router table buddy! :)
I love it .. !!
Thanks!
Well done 👍 very very nice job 👍👍👍
Great job !!
Excellent build on a really nice router cabinet
Thanks!
Girl friend ! You’re on fire 🔥! Awesome !
Thank you, very impressive, great project!!!
That is one very nice build, well done.
Barry (ENG)
Thank you Barry!
She has skills.
Thanks!
Very great project! In Germany Pocket Holes are not so popular, but it seems a good construction.
Thanks! Pocket holes are my go to joinery for shop projects. So fast and easy to use, and solid enough to last in this setting.
@@DIYMontreal It's a really great system. I have bought the Kreg 4 System and I am happy. I do it in combination with Lamellos. Best Regards from Germany
nice build
Thanks June!
Great job on the build and video. I’ll be building one in the next few weeks.
Awesome, thanks! Enjoy the build!
You've inspired me to build one rather than buy one. It's exactly what I need/want. Great job!
Thank you! That's awesome :) Enjoy the build!
Very nice build! Do you have a cut list you would be willing to share? I am new to woodworking and this is the nicest build for a router table I have seen yet.
sorry...I hadn't watched this one yet before asking the above question.
No worries! Hope you found the cutting diagrams on my website :)
@@DIYMontreal yup sure have thanks!
Bravo à toi, très beau projet.
Wow that project came out beautiful love it. Great vid
Thanks!
Nice
Thanks
excellent work good video, greetings from Argentina
No way! Just visited Argentina, what a beautiful country.
I love it! Nice job!
Excellent build video. I had a Quebecois friend in university and he too would inadvertently drop a "substract" into an otherwise flawless English conversation. (Not a criticism; I wouldn't have known you were a native French speaker until I heard this.)
Haha didn't even realize I made that mistake but I know exactly what you mean! That's how they teach it in school here ;)
Currently building this table. I love the simplicity of the build and the functionality of the table. I only wish I could find that Ryobi power switch
Well I can see why you might have a hard time with that... I re-purposed the switch from my old router table, But you can buy a very similar one, just different brand. Glad you like the table, thanks!
A phenomenal series of videos and description, thanks! I am purchasing the materials to build a version of this and noticed that the link to the 20" drawer slides point to 22" slides. Did you actually use 20" slides (and the link changed on Amazon's end)?
nice shop ! if your not going to get at truck , you may benefit from a trailer on you car to get full 4x8 sheets back to the shop I have a van for my shop and a 6x12 trailer really comes in handy around my shop keep up the good work
But where would I keep the trailer? lol I'd rather just get a big truck! ;) Thanks for the tip Bruce.
did not understand that you had no room and yes I like a truck formost also...I have been thinking of installing a panal saw in my shop.. this can also be a space saver for me

Very nice table I really like it.
It's Great Work
