I have a chance to buy a P-C 693 plunge router.
Can a fixed base be put on the 693 essentially making it a 690, or is the 693 actually a 690 with the plunge base added?
You can drop the motor out of the bottom of the table easy and switch out the bits easy..once you take the springs out ,that's it ,will not plunge (lift up easy) any more, for many of your hand jobs..
Hi Dennis: I have the same router, the motor will fit all the bases. I have the 693 plunge and I bought a "D" handle base. It's a matter of how comfortable you are with the bases. If the price is right and the machine is in good condition go for it.
Hope this helps your decision, Woodnut65
