I made my own out of MDF ... why not make your own ... will be exact
size you want then.

I took advice form some guys here who had done this ... and made mine.

Since pics were taken ... complete it to have ...

Added melamine faced ply faces to the vertical section .. these allow
wood to slide easily and will be replaced as necessary, split so I can
offset when needed.
extract hose port fitted to rear box.

I also made up a truing jig, so I used my router with a wide bit and
made sure horizontal face and vertical face were true and exactly 90
degrees ... although 1" MDF should have been true, I think my gluing
up & biscuit jointing had put some stresses in it, and it had warped a
little, less than a mm, but it was easy enough to correct.

I built my Table with TREND router table insert plate ... well worth
the cost, my TREND T11 has a great micrometer adjustment, that works
from above table when Router is in place.

yep thats the sort of thing I had in mind to make I was looking for the T
bolts and knobs when I came across the axminster one hence the question

I have the Freud 2200 1/2 inch router with the micro adjuster I will need to
turn it from below but it is easy to do

I am looking at the Trend Aluminium insert plate from Axminster

what feather boards do you use?
