| Registered User New Member |  New Member Hello. New member here, and I just picked up my first router yesterday, I hope it's a good one: I got a Bosch 1617evs fixed based router from Home Depot's annual rental-tool sale. $94.00 with the case, guide, and a couple of bits that were included. I'm a hobbyist whose background is actually Car Audio installation, but I'm looking to also expand into some other woodworking projects. Looking forward to sharing info and learning lots!!! -Ben |

| Registered User Forum King  | Welcome to the forum Ben. From other reports from our US members, it sounds like you picked yourself a good router combo with the Bosch. Unfortunately, it's not available here in NZ (yet). Keep in touch.

| Senior Moderator Supreme Forum King  | Welcome Ben. You made a good choice, the 1617 is always top rated in magazine testing. I own a couple of them so the fixed base stays in my table and the plunge base is always ready for free hand work.

| Official Greeter Supreme Forum King  | Welcome to the forums Ben. Seems like we have been getting a lot of members who are into car stereos lately or the building of speaker enclosures.
