## Description

Don't let its compact size fool you. The award-winning Bench Dog 40-001 ProTop Contractor Benchtop Router Table makes use of a unique forward offset router location and the dual-position ProFence to provide as much usable work surface as most full-size router tables. Designed to be durable, easy to move around the job site, and ready to accept any router, it provides the versatility, stability, and guidance you need to complete precision projects safely.Versatile Design for Precision WorkWhether you're a professional craftsperson or a serious do-it-yourselfer, a router table like the ProTop Contractor lets you tackle jobs that would be difficult or impossible to complete precisely with a handheld router.A top-quality fence is critical to the performance of any router table system, and this system relies on the feature-loaded ProFence. Its heavy-duty, one-piece aluminum frame is fully machined on the front and bottom surfaces to ensure it's flat, true, and square. Easy-adjust sub-fences and bit guard are also included.The ProTop Contractor provides a flexible setup that can be adjusted to project-specific needs, with an aluminum miter accessory track that is adjustable to fit all standard miter gauges, plus accessory T-slots on both the table and fence that are perfect for mounting featherboards, stops, fence risers, and switches. This allows you to accommodate the full range of router applications, from cutting dadoes and slots to crafting precise joints. For work with large panels, this table also offers dual fence slots, so you can flip the fence around quickly and easily.An integrated 2-1/2-inch dust port fits standard shop vac hoses to help keep your work area clear of debris for safety, visibility, and operator comfort.Dependable Construction for Tough JobsThe non-marring laminate top is built using stress-skin construction for strength and flatness, and it measures 24 x 16 inches to provide a large work area. Exclusive twin steel rails support your router, while the enclosed birch plywood cabinet reduces dust and noise, and its solid panel construction makes it stronger than cheap plastic or stamped steel stands. The cabinet's rubber feet prevent table slippage and double as isolation mounts for dramatically reduced vibration.This table's setup will accept any router, and the included router plate is predrilled to make installation extra-easy for most popular routers from leading brands like Craftsman, DeWalt, Fein, Hitachi, Makita, Ryobi, and Skil. The 15-inch inside-cabinet height provides plenty of space for whatever router you use, plus room for Bench Dog's ProLift and other accessories (not included).This portable router table weighs just 40 pounds, and it requires assembly. It is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.About Bench DogBench Dog offers a growing line of router tables, safety accessories, and tools for everyone from building and woodworking professionals to schools and serious beginners.The company began in 1995 with Norston Fontaine, Karen Slatter, and the simple idea that great tools are the result of great design and solid engineering.

    Apple-esque Quality
  

*by B***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2015*

Really quite an impressive table! I'm a professional and use this at least weekly to make dados and rabbets. It's super solid, VERY well built, and to me it seems like nothing was unconsidered when they designed this. The packaging is almost Apple-eqsue in it's simplicity and clarity.

    Excellent router table
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2015*

-I have been using this table for about 2 years-Although this is an expensive table, you do get what you pay for, and through use likely come to appreciate the features. The build quality is top tier in all respects. The wood parts appear to be high ply count pre-finished Baltic birch, with all parts perfectly machined. The feet work to dampen vibrations, and there is a cord outlet on the back. The mounting system for the plate allows for a very precise level of adjustment, with an array of set screws around the perimeter of insert to make sure it is exactly flush with the table at all points. This is something that is generally not available on simpler table designs, and rather difficult to incorporate on shop made options. The main table top is quality as well, with excellent fit and finish, with a standard 3/4" miter slot running along the front edge. The insert is set up to accept most popular routers; I have used it with Dewalt and Porter Cable models.The fence is also very nice, with tool free adjustable sliding MDF inserts to close in around the bit, a T slot at the top for accessories, and tool free hold downs for moving it around the table top. The fence also has a built in 2 1/2" dust extraction port, which in my experience is about 85% effective when attached to my dust collection system. Running the table with no dust collection is extremely messy, as shavings will fill the inside of the cabinet as well as be expelled from the collection port about 2' out if the fence is attached. This is probably the only aspect that is a negative when using the table. There is an obvious temptation to use the lower cabinet as storage since there is a lot of space in there, but it will inevitably fill with sawdust and cleaning it out if there are items in it is not ideal; I have just resorted to leaving it empty.Overall I remain completely satisfied with the choice to get this, though I would concede it is not a necessity item by any means as there are other router setups that will be entirely effective at a lower price point.

    What a portable Router table should be
  

*by L***H on Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2014*

I don't have a traditional workshop/garage - I have to take my tools out of a storage shed to use them, however I still like to do high quality woodworking and cabinetry - so I was in the market for a top quality bench top router table. After researching for many, many hours over several weeks and hands on examining several models, I decided on the BenchDog ProTop Contractor.  I wanted a very solid/durable high quality table with full size table features; namely it had to have the ability to mount a router lift and the fence had to be top notch, I went and looked at all the competition and narrowed it down to the BenchDog and the Kreg, in the end I preferred the BenchDog fence & enclosed wooden cabinet better.Table arrived in 3 days, was packaged well, assembly was straight forward. Was beyond impressed with the quality and detail to function ~ fit/finish was outstanding. Assembly took 15-30 min, but I went slow paying attention to detail. The fence is very robust (same extrusion as their famous full-size router table fence. The fence included 2 small square bars about 8-9" long that aren't mentioned in the manual, so I downloaded the fence manual online and found out they are shims for the outtake side of the fence so the table can be used as a joiner - Kewl!  All-in-all am very impressed with what all you get in such a small package and the quality is exactly the same as the other BenchDog products - easily recommend this for anyone looking at a bench top router table.Also note: ordered an INCRA Mast-R-Lift II to go with the router table (made by JessEm but with magnetic inserts around the bit) they make the lift in two sizes, 8-1/4" is needed for the BenchDog (note: you can buy & change the top to the 9-1/4 later if you change your table) - when trying to install it, it wouldn't fit - the metal support on the front right side needed to be clearanced about a 1/4-3/8 inch in one spot about an inch long - easily solved with a dremmel, took 5-10 min. - router lift fits great now along with a mounted Milwaukee 5625 router.
