Well its that time of year again and you may be shopping for yourself or that special woodworker on your list.  I had an interesting talk with the folks at Bench Dog last week and they have told me about their latest promotion that they are having.  If you did not see it, they have a 2 page spread in American Woodworker Magazine.  They are promoting the Bench Dog 40-200 router table and the Bench Dog 40-150 Pro Lift.  These are both excellent woodworking tools.  So what would make them better in my book?  Cash back. Right now if you buy either the 40-200 router table or the 40-150 router lift you can get a $50 rebate direct from Bench Dog.  You go to your favorite retailer and just buy the product like you normally would and then download the rebate form and send it in.  For some reason they have a 8 week processing time for the rebate to come back to you.  I am not sure why most companies wait that long, I personally could not stand having that much stuff on my desk to do.  You can find details about the Promotion Here.  Bench Dog Holiday Promotion.

Bench Dog 40-200

This is a solid table that is capable of doing any router table chore you have in mind.  Keep in mind this table is solid phenolic and has a solid steel stand.  Bench Dog also requires you to buy your insert seperate now, so make sure you do not forget.  The fence comes with it and is a split fence design.  We have done a review of this table and your can find that previous review here for more information.

Bench Dog 40-150 Router Lift

This is a solid lift made specially for Bench Dog tables.  You can put a variety of routers onto the lift, so make sure you have the correct adaptor for your router.  It comes standard issue for the Porter Cable 7518 Router.
