The Rout-N-Plane is a bench top board mill that guides a router across a board to level and flatten it. It is designed for end grain cutting boards, which should not be leveled on a jointer or thickness planer. It also works on workbench tops, river tables and natural edge slabs.
It adjusts in seconds for board thicknesses from 3/4" to 3". To set the height, find the tab setting on the ends that puts the router support just above the board, then spin in the locking knobs. The powder-coat finish slides easily across benchtop surfaces and gives the router base a low-friction surface.
A centering guide is included to set the router edge guides properly. A sacrificial fence keeps the unit square to the project. It works with routers from laminate trimmers to 3 HP models. The Original handles boards up to 15" wide, and the XL handles panels up to 24" wide, in any length the table can support. Both are machined and inspected in Strongsville, Ohio.
