SS Router Table Question

[jsburger]

Is this item usable on the over arm pin router table?

I don't recall seeing a reference to it in the OPR manual, so my hunch is that those are made for MkV-mounted router tables. But on my own OPR, I found that I did need to add stiffeners under the table. Angle iron worked nicely for me.

Thanks Dennis. I think the OPR table is larger than the SS mounted one so looking at the size that makes sense. Angle iron is cheap and readily available so no problem.

The OPR table I have on now is pretty flat, none the less when I pull things apart to mount the Jessem fence I will also add an extra support by way of a square tube. I've had very good luck doing it this way.

I expect that you have checked yours and think it needs some help?

I'm not especially happy with those corner shims for leveling the table insert with the table so I might look into some hardware to fix that. For me that is a lot more of an issue then table flatness.
