UPDATE JessEm contacted me about the assorted minor issues. Their customer service turns out to be first rate and they really do care about making everything right. In the unlikely event that you have a problem, make sure you give them a chance to sort it out!

After a long wait for shipping on the parts I"m finally ready to install the router lift into my new table saw wing.

I selected the JessEm RoutRLift II. It represents a good value, being a high quality lift at a reasonable price. It does take some time to get stuff through customs and into the U.S. though, so progress has been slow.

Most of the work centers around creating the opening for the lift in the table surface. A separately ordered template makes the job a lot easier and more accurate.

The lift simply bolts in place once the hole is cut. Operation is a breeze! This really is a very, very nice piece of gear that I expect to enjoy for years.
