Rout-N-Plane Bench Top Board Mill

The Woodpeckers Rout-N-Plane™ Bench Top Board Mill tackles two jobs your thickness planer can’t…end-grain cutting boards and glued-up panels wider than your planer. Just fix your cutting board to a flat table, adjust the Rout-N-Plane™ height just above the board, and set your router depth of cut to shave a little off the top. In minutes you’ll have a flat board ready for finish sanding.

End grain cutting boards tend to be favored in the kitchen because they stand up to heavy work better than edge grain or face grain boards. While leveling them with a router sled isn’t exactly a new idea, Rout-N-Plane™ offers convenience and flexibility you can’t get with shop-built sleds. It adjusts in seconds to safely guide any router across your board. Just find the tab setting on the end that puts the router support just above your board and turn the locking knobs. The powder-coat finish allows it to easily slide across benchtop surfaces and provides a low-friction surface for your router base. A centering guide is provided to set the router edge guides, and a sacrificial fence is provided to keep the Rout-N-Plane™ square to your project.

Works with stock from 3/4″ to 3″ thick and up to 15″ wide (based on a 6″ diameter base with a 1″ diameter cutter).

Like all Woodpeckers products, the Rout-N-Plane™ is proudly machined and carefully inspected in the Strongsville, OH facility, just south of Cleveland.
