Hi fellow buiders, I was looking for a plan for a decent router table and found this Hobby Desk, Its from Popular Machanics 1936 (reprint Pop Science Feb 1966)so is out of copyright!. I am now thinking of building one minus the chair! and resize in length to hold the Victory with room to spare and a few extras to make it work for me. What do you think? is anyone interested?









Edited for better pictures
Happy Building, Russ

Yep I think I might, My current desk is getting a right mess but I do have to share it with 4 monitors and 2 computers so I might just have to adapt it slightly, I am using a 150cm x 75 cm desktop from Ikea and salvaged parts supporting it! I !"need a new one! lol
