Router lifts

[Bob Yarbrough]

Any suggestion on a precise router lift for a PC router. The adjustment on the router is pretty primative, looking for something to match the precison of the Incra fence system I installed last week.

Just got the Jess'em master lift and it is sweet.

4 th on the Woodpecker, ( I installed a plungelift on the table I made for my Buddy), I can't say about the other brands.

"Which" PC router you have makes a difference relative to the lifts you might choose from...

I got a Jessem Rout-R-Lift for my Makita. Very nice, smooth, very well made.

I just got the PRL for my new router table. Also have a Jessem on my tablesaw mount (came with the saw). Both are high-quality, excellent products. It's a toss-up for me.

Others have posted about the Jointech with the digital scale. It gets a lot of raves here, but just too darn expensive for me....

Another vote for the Wookpecker PRL.

I have the Jessem Master-Lift, and it has worked very well for almost two years. There is still zero backlash in the height adjusment and no noticeable wear on the bronze bushings. It is ultra-presice. (1/4 turn =1/64 of an inch)

I mainly use the PC7518 in it, but I also have the adapter sleeve to fit my Makita 1101. In some ways, I prefer it with the Makita; It is quieter, generates less heat buildup on long run-times, and has a wider speed range.

The only minor glitch I've had was a sawdust buildup on the height-adjuster threads causing added friction when cranking. The solution involved simply cleaning & lubrication.

I have been very pleased with my Bench Dog Prolift Ni. The new jointech one looks nice. I have never really heard anyone complain about any of the lifts though, so you will probably be happy with whatever you choose.

[Eddie Watkins]

I have a Jointech Lift that I think is or was made by Jessem. It is super accurate. The PC 7518 fits perfectly. This is another area where they are all good, you probably can't make a bad decision.

How about a custom design?








I'm sorry, I guess I always look for reasons to show off my designs.
