Lenmcharristar 10,334 Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 You can set in on a table and make a jig for your router from steel box section that your router will sit on and pass the router over the top in 3mm plunge depth and shave off from the top until it’s a completely flat surface again then knock the outer frame apart clean the mortises and tenons , reglue it and clamp it together and it will serve as a table or get a big tray clean the block top set the top inside with the surface you want on show facing down in the tray and fill with clear epoxy resin until it just comes flush with the under side, when dry you will have an amazing looking table 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
