Tilting router lift inspired by [Matthias Wandel](https://woodgears.ca/router_lift/)

It is designed to handle all commonly available routers. The router holder is a separate part that can easily be drawn for your specific router. I'm using it with a Makita RT0700 series trim router.

Specifications

---------------------

* 80mm (3.15") depth range

* 45° tilt range

* Can support 0-100mm (0-4") diameter routers (will design holders on request)

* Each turn on depth handle changes depth of cut by 3mm

## Hardware

This build requires quite a bit of hardware. I've designed the router lift in metric so all the hardware is also metric. The bolts are DIN standard, not ISO.

(converted to imperial using https://www.dot.ny.gov/main/business-center/engineering/specifications/english-spec-repository/bolt_table.pdf)

* 1x 180mm(7inch) M10-1.5(7/16inch) threaded rod

* 2x 10mm (25/64inch or about 3/8 inch) diameter 50 mm long shaft

* 2x M10-1.5(7/16inch) nut

* 4x M10(7/16inch) oversized washer

* 1x M8(5/16inch) nut

* 1x M8(5/16inch) 40mm(1.574803 inch) partially threaded bolt (for large gear)

* 2x M8(5/16inch) 50mm(2 inch) partially threaded bolt (for gear knob and depth lock knob)

* 1x M8(5/16inch) washer

* 27x M6(1/4inch) nut

* 4x M6(1/4inch) grub screw (dovetail slide adjustment)

* 3x M6(1/4inch) washer

* 3x M6(1/4inch) 25mm(1 inch) socket head bolt

* 14x M6(1/4inch) 20mm (0.7874016 inch) flat head socket bolt

* 2x M6(1/4inch) 45mm(1.771654 inch) socket head bolt (tilt lock knobs)

* 8x M6(1/4inch) 40mm(1.574803 inch) socket head bolt

18x wood mounting screw

## Printing

I've have spend quite a bit of time altering the design to avoid need for support when printing.

My router lift is printed in a mix of PLA (Green) and PETG (Black). I haven't logged my print settings for all components but underneath you will find my print settings for the essential parts. All the STL files are shown facing the direction I have printed them.

* Hinge plates: 50% Infill, 8 top/bottom layers, 6 perimeters (12 hours)

* Gears: 20% infill, 4 perimeters, with support on build plate only, (5 hours)

* Dovetail rail: 50% Infill, 8 top/bottom, 6 perimeters, with support on build plate only, (42 hours)

* 65mm router holder: 50% infill 8 top/bottom, 6 perimeters. no support

## Table and Fence

The table is built from a not that old but really bad table saw. I removed the original table, cut a hole on one side and fitting a piece of 25mm mdf tabletop on it instead.

The fence is made from birch plywood and the sacrificial part of it is made of laminate flooring that I had left over. Knobs are all 3d printed. I use [ljon's dust extraction port](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1789688) which make it easy to plug in a 100mm flex tube for dust collection. I don't have my dust collection system set up yet so i made a adapter for it to fit my shop vac until I get the other system set up.

# Change log

2019-01-12: Updated hinge locks to allow for 10 degrees of movement beyond 90 degree upright position. This requires special mounting for the rail not to hit the table

2018-12-26: Updated the rail to be slightly shorter and added the ability to split the rail into two parts for smaller print beds.

2018-11-26: Added beefier version of the large gear as gear arm snapped on mine because i walking into something when moving the lift mounted to the table. Started a change log and assembly section.
