I have two containers with oak (?) flooring. I have a roll around router

able to unmount it quickly. Where can I find some type of t bolts that I
can drill an oversized hole in the wood, put the female anchor in there
flush with the floor, secure it in, and have enough room around it to
blow
out chips once I take it loose? I have a router table on a base, table
saw,
and metal bender I'd like to anchor down. I think if I use a lag, the
hole
will wallow in the wood. I could take some square plate, cut some vent
blow
holes, drill it, weld a nut on the underside, rout out a place on the
floor,
and mount that with countersinks, but I was wondering if there was
anything
available that was pre made that I could just slam down.

If you're worried about the holes getting clogged, you could put bolts
(setscrews, if you want to stay flush) in the unused ones.


Stainless too, nice.


Now, that's a thought.
