    Made myself a router table

    I've had this router for a couple years now. I got it in a package tool deal via craigslist. My guess is that it's from the late 60's. I finally got some bits from harbor freight and started using it and decided a router table was in order. Got the top at my local Habitat Re-Store for $3...

    Can I plug my compressor into this?

    Here are the details for my compressor motor. I can change the male plug to match if it will work. I can switch an outlet and light fixture but that is about the extent of my electrical knowledge.
