I have a couple of routers. I have a Makita plunge base router and an old Black And Decker router. When I say black and decker dont get hard on me. The model I have is a 7604 the router was made in the USA and is incredibly smooth and quiet. I love it so much in fact. I would put it up against any fixed base router. I am wanting to see your thoughts on Routers and what ones you perfer etc thanks for taking the time to contribute to this forum.

 

cheers,

Fantastic. Really awesome little palm router and the kit is perfect. Plus….I got it on Amazon for $29, I think it was an accident but they honored the price.
