Dang this thing is scary. I have to reproduce some crown molding to match the existing stuff in a remodel. It would cost bank to get it made so I'm making it myself and will get to keep the router bit which cost just under $100.

Using it with just the regular router base was sobering. That big chewer of flesh spinning at 23,000 rpm yielded gnarly vibration and I'm sure it's pretty well balanced. I had to make a new plate for that big hole but it's difficult to get the right result so I went with the quickie router table. Crude but effective. Has the bearing but I may put a fence on it for greater stability. I just screwed the plywood to the sawhorses. I keep longer machine screws in my router box so I can make such a table when needed. 10 x 24 IIRC.
