JessEm Mast-R-Lift II and AUKTools Router Motor 2400W with Speed Control NVR Switch

Fast delivery. A bit disappointed that the clamps for 6 and 8 mm router bits are not included. Had to order here separate.

My first router lift and wow does it make a difference! Accurate adjustments are a breeze once you get your head around it. The 2400w router with speed control seems to be quite a beast and time will tell how it holds up. The remote speed adjuster seemed worth the extra cost rather than faffing about under the table. I haven't tested it fully, but wouldn't hesitate to recommend either product.

The other lift is superb quality. The engineering is top level. A very minor niggle is the fit of the height adjustment handle…it’s just a tad too big so didn’t fit in nicely to the lift heigh mechanism or the router holding clamp. I sanded it down a tiny bit to make this fit better. A torque setting for the router clamp would be helpful to ensure the router is properly secured.

The router is also beautifully engineered. Powerful and the NVR with speed control is very convenient and safe. The only niggle is I wish the router had a plug in cable so it can be put into a dust box easier. I worked around it but a secure plug connection would have made this so much better (I think the Jessem router has this).

Great service also from Woodworkers Workshop.

The Jessem MasterR Lift 2 metric router lift is incredibly well engineered, and so smooth in operation. I was pleased to find several threaded ¼ - 20 UNC holes for DRO mounting in the underside of the baseplate. The lift also comes ready to mount the AUKTools 2400W motor. I chose the remote speed control version, this in my opinion is a perfect combination . The motor is so much quieter than my previous one and the router lift so sublimely accurate they are a pleasure to use.
I only found one niggle - the grub screws supplied to level the plate to the table were incredibly tight, I doubted if they actually fitted. Fortunately I have upgraded my previous table to the Incra table and did not require them as it had its own built in levelling screws. Having said that, make no mistake this is a fantastic setup, and thoroughly recommended.
Like others I would like to thank the staff at Wood Workers workshop for their excellent support and advice. I have now made further Incra purchases from them to compliment these. Everything is so precise and extremely well made. Highly recommended.
