You are right about getting a trim router, I love mine! I have the PC 7310 and just got the reg. base. I wanted the PC 310 (I think that's the number) but it was more expensive and at the time I didn't want to spend the money.

While I like this model for doing small jobs and things like freehand lettering, plug trimming etc., I did make the mistake of not getting the kit with other bases. I don't to much laminate work so I never did buy it for that but the tilt base would be really handy.... so why haven't I just purchased one? Well I paid about $90 for the router and PC wants about that for the tilt base.....

I also wish it had a plunge option..... so I have been looking around for one with the tilt base and plunge base option. So far Freud and Trend seem to have those options..... not saying this is what you're looking for but just some thoughts.... Oh yes the PC310 (?) has found a home for a lot of model makers and someone has a custom AL plunge base they make for it for about $600 US if you want something really nice....

If you have more questions about the one I have or what I have been looking at let me know.

Now that you got me thinking about it I went looking for a good price on the tilt base I need and found that amazon now carries them and for $55.... I guess I'll be ordering one tonight.

I also looked at the PC line up and it was the PC310 I liked.... not that it matters to you but as you get older it's nice to know you remembered the right number of a tool once in a while......
