Great Option for the Job Site
Street price: $1,200

Flatness with Festool router: 0.002-in. dip
Dust collection: Fair
This compact router table is a great option for the job site. Also, the fence allows you to offset the infeed and outfeed tables with the turn of a dial. It fits only the Festool OF 1010 and OF 1400 routers, which claim above-thetable height changes. However, changing the bit from above the table was difficult.
Fine Woodworking Recommended Products
Estwing Dead-Blow Mallet
A quality dead-blow mallet that packs and punch but isn't too heavy for furniture work.
Festool Rotex FEQ-Plus Random Orbital Sander
The Festool Rotex is a top-of-the-line choice. On its coarse setting, it removed stock nearly twice as quickly as the second-fastest model. But that speed doesn’t mean you’ll have to wrestle with it. It’s no huge task to control it with two hands, and its long body gives you plenty of room to find a sweet spot while holding it.
Festool Cleantec CT 26 E HEPA Dust Extractor
The clear winner here is Festool’s CT 48 Dust Extractor. It has amazing capacity relative to its size, and unmatched suction power. It packs in a number of subtle but very helpful design touches, like a clever foot brake and easy hose and cord storage.
