Hi, I'm new member Thebig0 from Perth Western Australia. I'm a real router freak. Cannot get enough of them. I currently have 6. It really saves changing the bits.I've just created a workshop so I can set up all my tools and start ripping into the timber. My favorite tool is my Makita slide compound saw. You get such square edges. I have just built a duplicating router (copy carver) on a 6 x 4 bench which is similar to the Gemini carver but bigger and stronger. I am thinking of attaching a revolving turntable under the router so I can make bowls etc. This carver was mostly made from scrap and most of the moving bits came from old tv monitor stands and an old car jack. I'll try to get a picture of this up if anyone would like to see it. My son makes guitars so this gadget will prove very handy.
