That will mount under one of these....
Charnwood W012 Bench Top Router Table - White : AmazonSmile: DIY & Tools
At the moment I have my plunge router rigged up and the trigger switch kept closed with a cable tie and then fed through a NV on-off switch mounted on the side. Not ideal but serviceable however, my main problem is setting the cutter height. I basically have to lean on the table as I push the router upwards from below and then try to lock it into position without it moving. I usually get my wife to give me a hand but thats not always feasible if she is busy and I am changing cutters often.
Anyone got any recommendations for a suitable router that can be simply slid up to the correct height without having to press against any springs? I don't do any 'heavy' routering so think a 1/4" will suffice but willing to consider 1/2" and maybe change/modify the bed plate on the table.
Current router is a MacAllister 1/4" and has been suitable for things I've done so far.
