New Product - "CMT Router Table with Large Insert"

The garage isn't done but we can already start to use the CMT table insert concept. Beth places the CMT Pocket-Pro into place.
	We are using pocket screw joinery so Beth places the back on the jig. The board is large and flexible right now, but the table handles it perfectly.
Beth drills holes every 8 inches or so — she just makes sure that the hole is positioned where there is wood, not a groove..
	When she starts to assemble the unit, she uses a scrap piece of plywood to make sure that the grooves are aligned before screwing the assembly in place.
Once both ends are aligned and clamped, Beth loosens one end and moves the back away just enough to apply some glue.
	She has glued the other end, then repositioned the back and is now driving screws home. The pocket screws are 1 1/4" coarse thread and pull each section together for some nice glue squeeze out.
With the one side fastened to the back, she applies glue to the other side. Note, that it is resting on the black right angle guides that she has clamped in place to help her position the side.
	With the side in position, she can start driving the pocket screws in place.
With the three sides assembled, Beth has carefully measured and cut two pieces that will be glued and screwed at the top and bottom.
	She goes back to the Pocket-Pro and drills some holes for attaching these pieces.
With the top in place, she has added a piece of edge banding and is now sanding the edges. There will be a top to cover these pocket holes and on the bottom, they will be down and resting on the base.
	Beth has cut a scrap piece of plywood to about 1 1/2" wider than the case and is installing 4" casters. You can see that she has rounded the corners, run the slotting bit and has added the black plastic "bumper." She is using machine screws which, when tightened, are pulled into the top — just enough to be flat against the base.    The machine screws were 1/2" too long, and she cut off the excess with a hacksaw. Now the casters  swivel freely.
She positions it on the case and will attach with some wood screws.
	It is looking good. We have to mount two more routers and then we can figure out the real position of each unit. For sure, we will want the heavier units at the bottom. I think we will also have space for a sliding drawer or two. Also, we will create a simple way to manage the power cords so they don't hang down and get combobbled* with the other cords..    It will be fun to  have it finished and ready for testing — a cabinet door project, maybe. For sure, this unit is built to be used.    * combobbled - I know, my spell check didn't have it either, but it is very descriptive, isn't it?
