Cool New to the forum

Hi,

I have watched a few episodes of the Router workshop and am a newbie when it comes to woodworking. I recently bought a Freud 1700 VCEK fixed base router. I am trying to decide if I should return it and get the PC 890 series instead.

Hi and welcome to the forums krams. Glad you joined us. Can't answer your question as I have no experience with either router. Someone will have it I'm sure.

Welcome to the forums Krams. Look forward to talking about routers with you. Not a real fan of the Freud router but the 890 has its problems as well. For my 2 cents stay where you are.

Hello to all, I am just starting on this forum. I taught woodworking in the county schools here in southern WV. I am now retired and hope to do a little more in my own workshop. I have a few machines in my basement and am thinking of mounting my router to get the more accurate cuts shown on TV. I guess time will tell if I am going to like the move. I also like to play golf and must decide which one will take precedence in my hobby choices.

Hi Carmello and welcome to the forums. Always glad to welcome another retiree. Keep to the woodworking guy, you can always golf while the finish on a project is drying.
