In the world of woodworking, achieving the perfect flat surface is often a challenge. Whether you're working with live edge slabs, table tops, river tables, cutting boards, or workbenches, the O'SKOOL Slab Flattening Router Sled with its 3-Axis Gantry Jig and 3.5" router lift offers a powerful solution. This tool is designed to give you precision and efficiency, ensuring that every project meets the highest standards.
When working on large projects like live edge slabs or custom tabletops, precision is key. Traditional planers can't always handle the job, especially when it comes to thicker pieces or uneven surfaces. This is where the O'SKOOL slab flattening system shines, offering reliable results for both large and smaller woodworking tasks.
One of the standout features of this system is its 3-Axis Gantry Jig, which ensures smooth, distortion-free movement across the X, Y, and Z axes. The system's stability provides an unmatched level of precision, making your slab flattening tasks easier and more accurate.
The built-in 3.5" router lift allows for precise Z-axis height adjustments, ensuring accurate slab flattening for both delicate and heavy-duty woodworking projects.
It eliminates the need for pre-drilled baseplates, streamlining setup. Easy to use, this lift enables exact material leveling, making it ideal for finish removal and precise flattening tasks.
This router sled is compatible with a wide range of 3-1/2 inch routers. Whether you have the Porter Cable Router 690/890 series, DeWalt Router 610/618 series, Bosch Router 1617/1618 series, Craftsman Router 1754X/28190/28084, or Skil Router RT1322-00, this sled can accommodate your router with ease, giving you flexibility in tool choice.
The sled's construction is made from high-quality aluminum alloy, ensuring durability and reliable performance over time. The robust material provides a distortion-free movement along the XY axis, reducing wobble or uneven cuts, even with larger slabs.
With a large work area (79-5/16 inches by 34-13/16 inches), this router sled can handle large slabs effortlessly, making it perfect for those working on river tables, cutting boards, or big tabletops. The generous dimensions allow you to flatten materials up to 3-9/16 inches thick, making it ideal for both large and small projects.
The O'SKOOL Slab Flattening Router Sled comes equipped with a built-in brush and a 2-1/2 inch vacuum port. This ensures that wood particles are efficiently captured, keeping your workspace clean and minimizing airborne debris. The improved dust management system also enhances cutting precision, reducing the need for post-cut sanding.
Live edge slabs can be tricky to flatten, especially with their natural curves and variations. The O'SKOOL router sled allows you to tackle these challenges with ease. The precision of the 3-Axis Gantry system ensures that your live edge slabs are flattened accurately, making them perfect for custom furniture or rustic tables.
The versatility of this router sled extends to table tops and river tables. Whether you're working with thick material or a delicate piece, the sled can handle it. The smooth movement and adjustable settings make it easy to achieve a perfectly flat surface.
