Makita XTR01Z 18V Router - base plate and lipper

**RobTakami** · Jan 7, 2019, 07:17 PM

I created a perspex base plate from my small trim router, with a lipper/handle attached to the base plate rather than the router base. It offers improved visibility, stability, safety and ease of use.

Thanks Jim! chopping up chunks of 2 x 4 has always been easy but making something truly beautiful - well that may a long time. It is a lot of fun though that is for sure. Cheers, Rob in NZ
