Is there an important difference between this table, and the Bosch RA1181?

The main difference is the cabinet which helps cut the dust down. The table top of this unit is laminated MDF which is not as durable as the metal top of the RA1181, however the plastic legs on the RA1181 are certainly not going to be as durable as the cabinet on this unit. I should also point out that while the table is made of MDF, the router plate is made of metal. Since that is where all the action is taking place, I fully expect this unit to last many many years. This unit has 2 dust ports, one behind the router bit and another in the cabinet itself. This really helps keep the dust down. the RA1181 will likely make a much bigger mess as all the stuff flies out of the bottom. The cabinet also serves as a handy place to store all the little goodies like feather boards, knobs, and whatnot. I have this unit and considered the RA1181 for a little while. I am 100% happy with the cabinet design and would certainly get it again. The only problem I have is that neither table comes with a miter guage. I added the POWERTEC 71005 guage to my table and it's awesome! It has a sturdy all-metal design and is a perfect fit for the miter slot in the table. Whichever table you get, I strongly suggest adding a miter guage

Table top and cabinet are the differences. I prefer the cabinet and the table top will see many years of service. Price being equal I would go for the RA1171 for the cabinet and dust control.

Sorry, I've only used the RA1171. The cabinet style is good to keep al the extra parts together , but so would a small tool box and it wouldn't fill with dust.

Thank you for your question. We recommend that you contact the manufacturer of the router table to verify if it is compatible with the Bosch 1617 series routers. If they are the same, yes the RA1165 will work with your table as it has the same hole pattern as the 1617EVS router. If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499).

The 861 is an improved model over the 860. It adjusts more easily for depth and placement, resulting in better alignment of dovetails.It is a better product than the 860... if you were to buy the 860, you will soon wish that you had paid extra for the 861, unless you're a very experienced router guy.

Yes, that one is, and probably because they often just use file-folder shots for Amazon ads. In my reviews of the saw (on a couple of woodworking sites) I used photos of my own saw, which I have modified considerably. The main mods were the installation of a non-collapsible support at the rear to handle longer boards being ripped and a zero-clearance throat plate for 90-degree cuts. I also stiffened up the dust port outlet and replaced all of the plastic knobs with solid wood knobs that I made myself. I also installed a second, paddle-type on-off switch on the right side of the saw for convenience sake. Not only is the 4500 different from the 2400, but the stand is, too. The 4510 has a superb zero-gravity stand (similar to the Bosch jobsite saw stand), and has a riving knife (instead of a simple splitter). The motors are probably the same (the same as that of the 1290 sliding-compound miter saw, too, but with different drive arrangements, of course), but the fence may be the same already quite good one. I think that either saw would work just fine, but of course only the 4510 can be obtained new. A decent, used 2400 unit would probably do the job as well, and should cost less, too. Howard

I bought this table for my Bosch 1617EVSPK router. It's a heavier duty consumer router and Bosch routers seem to have an advantage on Bosch tables - all models are listed on the table's manual for base mounting specs and instructions - I've never had any problem with my setup - I don't see why your router would be any different.

Bosch, I believe, originally is a German company. I have bought and still have Bosch tools. They are excellent tools. The same tool of equal quality made by Fein will cost $100.00 more.

Sorry but all these Bosch tools are geared toward the U.S. market and thus 110V @60hz or cycles. Contact Bosch world wide or go to www.bosch/worldwide.com There you will find what your looking for the only difference being the color of the tools are green not blue and the tools are in 220V 50hz version.

Thank you for your question. The 11536C has an impact rating of 2.2 Ft-Lbs as the RHH181 has 1.3 Ft-lbs. With the 11536C being a 36 volt will have a longer run time per charge on the batteries. If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499).

I believe it's just an older model number. I haven't found anything with any difference between the two of them.

It is specifically for the Bosch Sanders. It also broke 3weeks after I bought it.

The saw had a major manufacturing defect when purchased. I believe that there was arbor wobble. Whatever it was Makita repaired the saw at no charge but would not say what the problem was. As far as the Bosch, I'm not sure about the Bosch as far as space constraints.

I am not sure of the differences between the two model numbers you have listed. I do know that the "Reds" are highly rated and I wouldn't put anything else into one of our servers.

Here is the list of compatible routers from the owner's manual - it would have been nice to have this when I was shopping: Bosch Models 1613 series, 1617 series (fixed base only), 1619EVS; Craftsman listed as "most Craftsman 1/2" collet routers"; DeWalt DW616, DW618 (Fixed base only); Hitachi M12VC; Makita RF1100, RF1101; Milwaukee 5615, 5616; Porter Cable 690 Series, 7529 plunge router and 892-895 series (fixed base only); Ryobi R161, R162, RE170, RE180 PL; Skil 1810, 1815, 1820, 1825. I used this table with my Craftsman and tried to use it with the Makita RF1101. The problem there lay with the Makita design, however, not this table. The router mounted beautifully to the table and bit replacement and cutting depth was a dream from the top, but the motor base would not stay locked in place in an undermount setup due to Makita's deficient lock lever design. (If you're curious about the particulars, please see my review of the Makita RF1101). This was a crying shame IMO, since the Makita is supposed to be a real workhorse, unlike my burned out Craftsman. I have now been using it with the Milwaukee 5616 for the past 3 years and it works satisfactorily.

I bought mine last year, and it still said MADE IN GERMANY on it. CAUTION you must only buy the RH328VC model #, it is true many other BOSCH tools are now made in CHINA, but the RH328VC is still made in GERMANY as far as I know, and is a wunderbar ! tool.

I can't answer this question directly. However, my suggestion is for you to measure the miter track of your router table and compare your figures to so-called track "standards." These feather boards work just fine with my Ridgid R4510 table saw and Bosch RA1181 bench top router table.

I am not seeing a difference - the question visible to me does not indicate what "this" is referring too except for a picture of the box showing "ADVC110" so it looks like we are talking about the same thing.

Not that I am aware of but if you call Bosch they may have the answer for that. I haven't had that issue mine is reading accurately.
