Porter Cable Router Table

When I was upgrading to a router table for my shop, I found the decision on which table to buy difficult.  Which brand, what features did I need, is it really worth it to upgrade from my homemade table?

I’ve been woodworking for over two decades.  In this blog I write about some of my experiences and what I’ve learned about different router tables.

This post will specifically review the benchtop Porter Cable Router Table

Porter Cable Router Table Review

Overview

If cost is a factor and you simply need a router table, the Porter Cable Router Table is fine.  If you have multiple routers and want to keep an often used bit always ready to route, its an option.

However, realize that you do get what you pay for.

If you’re expecting features like some of the other models described in the website reviews at Router Table Reviews you’ll probably be disappointed.  It’s not that this is a bad router table, its not.  You just have to keep in mind you are not paying much and receiving a basic, functional router table.

With that said, let’s talk about some things I like.  I do like that the table is metal.  I think this helps keep the table flat for years.  At this price, most tables come with a plastic top.

The fence does have to adjustable halves.  Many tables in this range have only a single opening.  This is nice to keep a zero clearance opening for different sized bits.  It also has insert rings for the bit opening.  Actually I was very surprised by this feature.  This feature is not included on many more expensive models.

A miter gauge and bit guard are also included.

Conclusion

If you’re looking for a basic, functional router table to start out and you don’t want to spend a lot of money, the Porter Cable Router table is you’re best bet.
