Rockler’s New Router Table Worktop Turns Router Table into Multi-functional Work Surface

Rockler Woodworking and Hardware has created a way to increase work space without taking up more floor space: an easy-to-install removable worktop that quickly converts a router table into a usable surface for non-routing projects.

The Rockler Router Table Worktop is sized to fit Rockler’s 24" x 32" router table tops, providing more than 5 square feet of work surface while also protecting the router table. It’s made of 1/2" thick MDF and features printed rulers, an inch grid, a protractor and a fraction/decimal/millimeter conversion table for easy reference – all covered by a durable clear-coat finish.

“In small garage and basement shops, finding sufficient work space is a constant challenge,” said Steve Krohmer, Rockler vice president for product development. “The Rockler Router Table Worktop helps woodworkers and DIYers get more use out of their existing space by enabling them to quickly and easily convert their router table into a work table and back again.”

When it’s not in use, the worktop hangs conveniently on two included brackets that can be mounted to the underside of the router table, to a router stand or cabinet or to the wall. Slots on the worktop are spaced to match the slots on Rockler router table fences, so the fence can be stored on the brackets when the worktop is being used.

The worktop comes with expandable miter slot hardware that locks it securely to the router table without the need for other clamps. While it’s predrilled for mounting to Rockler and Bench Dog router tables, other holes can be drilled for mounting to other router tables that have standard 3/4" x 3/8" miter slots.

The Rockler Router Table Worktop (52765) is priced at $69.99 and can be purchased exclusively at Rockler.com or at Rockler Woodworking and Hardware stores nationwide, as well as through the Rockler catalog. For store locations or a free catalog, visit http://www.rockler.com or call 1-877-ROCKLER.
