Hi Folks,
I'm new to this whole forum thing - so I hope I'm doing this right.
I'm currently in the market for a new router - and looking for some guidance.
I'll mostly be using in a table - and have gotten confusing info on whether it's best to have a plunge or a fixed base in a lift - I've seen both used in a lift at trade shows. Somehow I'd gotten the impression I should only use a fixed base in a lift. Currently I'm using an old Craftsman without a lift. PAINFUL!
I think I definately have to go with a 1/2" collet and probably 2hp or better - so what do you recommend? What have you got and how long have you had it? Troubled brands to stay away from? etc. I need to make a decission and go for it.
