Hey all. I'm in the market for my first router. Leaning towards the Bosch 1617.
I found a local guy who has one for $45 but he states the bearings need to be replaced. I am torn, bearing and new brushes would be $25. I am comfortable with doing the repair but is it worth is? Looks like you can get the entire 1617 package for $150 as a refurb.
What would you do?
