Makita RT0700 router lift

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

I wanted to use my Makita RT0700 attached to my workbench. So I attached the plunge base of the Makita RT0700 to a 10mm piece of MDF. Therefore I used M8 rods and the fixing-STL.
In order to manipulate the plunge base from the top of the work bench, I designed a few parts. The parts assemble together with M6 bolts and nuts, some Aluminium tube 8mmx6mm and a M6 turnbuckle.
The Aluminium tube fits in the joints to prevent wear. The plunge_arm-STL are used instead of the hand-knobs of the plunge base.
In order to reduce the hole for the router-bits, I made the ring_base-STL, which fits nice and snugg in the foot of the plunge base. I made a hole in the MDF, in which the ring-STLs fit. They can be secured with M3 bolts and nuts to the base ring.
