O'SKOOL Router Lift Systems for 3-1/2" Diameter Motors, 9-1/4'' x 11-3/4'' Plate 5-Piece Insert Ring Kit

Unit is precise and fits my DeWalt 3.5” dia. router perfectly, enabling me to easily swap bits and make adjustments above the table. My only gripe is that the rotation crank handle seems a bit wonky when attempting to raise or lower the router any distance rapidly. I’ve taken to using a small drill at low torque with a hex-head bit in lieu of the handle. The value point is really nice for the high quality and design when compared to much higher priced “brand named” units. Also, comes with wide supply of plates and very clear instructions. Agreed that this is one of those jigs that you don’t know you needed it until you find you can’t do without it.

Have always kinda wanted a lift but never bought one. Finally broke down and bought one. After looking at all the cheap overseas crap that was available I decided to go with this one. Boy, was that a good move! This thing is SOILD, heavy, and accurate. It is very stable, solid, and has very smooth and fine adjustments. I think it will serve me well, much better than the cheap ones! Have already used it much more than I thought I would, and it works great. Made cabinet doors and used it with a 1/8” round over to break door edges with great results. Used it to make trim, for some parts of some floating shelves, etc. The ONLY negative I could think of on it is that the LED light is BRIGHT and actually gets in the way at times, but the way I have mine mounted I can usually find a direction that keeps it out of my eyes.

This plate/lift is excellent. Great Quality for a budget buy. I'd recommend this to anyone.

Good adjustment with this lift. Installed a Bosch 1617 and have used several times. Easy to raise or lower to my setup blocks. The lock screw holds the router to the correct height. Have used for dados, rabbets, and round overs. This units holds up to the hard work. Fits into their router table top perfectly. Easy to setup.

Love it one of the best router tables inserts I've ever used inserts I have ever used. Love it recommend it.

I always balked at pricing of these type contraptions but WOW! I Installed in to a newly fabricated router table (take your time and do it properly and you'll be rewarded) and am I loving this lift system. Precision built and components. Money well spent

I have had this router lift for 6 months now and it’s no longer useable. It worked great the first 5 months until it failed. You can longer raise or lower the router without it jumping up and down making precise adjustments impossible. There are bushings that are supposed to stay in place on the guide rails that have come loose causing this. I’ve tried contacting O’SKOOL Tools twice now via email to see if it’s covered under any warranty and they will not get back to me. From now on I’ll be sticking with the more well known brands that provide customer service and take care of their customers

I just received the O'Skool hand cranked router lift and it is absolutely a perfect match to the precise Bosch 1617. Not just in fit which it certainly does just fine but in the lift itself as well. It is super smooth and easy to operate along with the lock which does its job with ease. The rings fit well and turn to a locked position easily with the included stainless steel yoke.I did check it for flatness with a good straight edge and it is as straight as can be and most acceptable for my work. I had already ordered O'Skool's router plate when I saw their lift on Amazon. After receiving the lift and checking my 1617 in it I am sending the plate back without ever opening it.If you can justify the extra expense of the lift you won't regret it. The lift purchase frees up a base to set up for other things as well. I don't get as excited as this about many purchases from Amazon but this lift warrants being this pleased!
