Hi,
Forest Girl did you buy the Veritas Router table system. You were saving up for one quite some time ago. Just wondering if you did buy it how do you find it?????
Do you consider a router table an absolute must for building small woodworking projects. Tables, bookshelves, end tables. nighstands, dressers that sort of thing?
I have a set of dado blades. A friend of mine gave them to me for Christmas. Master Craft is the brandname. Not sure if you’re familiar with that brand. 8″ 24 tooth blades. He showed me how to use them the other day. I have to say they did a good job cutting through pine. but I have yet to use them for cutting hardwood. They sure did cut a smooth 3/4 inch dado and 1/4 inch dado for the bottom of a drawer. I was planning on buying a set of Delta blades but for now I’ll give the MasterCraft dado blades a try.
For now I guess I can make do with my fixed router and dado blades until I decide on which router table to buy.

build a table. it'll save you some cash and you can build it to suit. most of the major magazines run a how to on this at least once or twice a year. probably a million plans online too.
Hi, Wanda. Was wondering just today what you were up to! I have had the Veritas table top for awhile now, and really, really like it. Can't see any possible argument for going to another design, home-made or not.
What I don't have yet is the Veritas fence -- I'm still using my homemade fence from a couple years ago.
