There are quite a few benefits to enclosing the lower portion of the router table. After I enclosed the lower portion on the router table, I wondered to myself why I hadn't done it years before.

The best benefit is dust collection while mortising (or using another bit that directs dust down).
The other benefit that I never considered was the fact that the router is much quieter. [More]

I made the zero clearance insert for my table saw from MDF. The Craftsman saw I have has a funny shallow lip around the inside of hole. It was really kind of a pain because the material left on the ouside of the insert was rather thin. The holes were put into the insert to improve air flow to the lower dust chamber on the saw. The blade has a plastic enclosure beneath the table the completely surrounds the blade. I sealed this enclosure nearly air tight using foam. I needed to cut the holes in the zero clearance insert in order for the dust collection to have the necessary air flow. [More]

My Dust Collection unit is the 2HP model from Harbor Freight, and I have to say, it's been worth every penny. I got it on sale for $159 (reg $229), and I think it's hard to beat it's performance for the price.

I have it connected with 4 inch thin-wall PVC sewer and drain pipe and it works really well. I have a blast gate at every machine, and can only have one open at a time. [More]

The quartersawn white panel material is a unique sort of thing. It's about 3/16 of inch thick. I bought about 14 sheets (4ft x 5ft) of it from a guy who had is custom made for a wainscot he intended to install in his house. It's sort of like a hardboard core with a paper-ish veneer on one side (for equilibrium) and QSWO veneer on the other. When I bought it, I really didn't know what the heck I'd use it for, but I did know that I loved the look of QSWO. Since then, I've come up with some interesting applications for it. It works well for the panel portion of frame and panel style furniture. I'll be sorry when I run out of it. [More]
