Does anyone know if our router on the router table has variable speed? I purchased some locking miter bits and the recommend RPM is around 11K.

It does not, but the new router does, you can use the edge guide to follow the edge of your workpiece.
Can the new router be put on the table? There isn’t an edge guide on a locking miter bit.
It probably can be adapted to fit, but we bought an edge guide with the router, it is also under the router table. it has two bars that lock in the router base and essentially a T bar that will follow your edge without a bearing on the bit. you have to dial in the offset to get it centered, but should work. It’s also nice because you can hook up a vacuum hose to it to keep dust/chip mess down.
