I looked at the pic thumbnails earlier but couldn't open the full size pics, and can't even get the thumbnails now. However from what I was seeing earlier, I believe that the router is a Mak 3600BR. I have had one of these from new and they are a good machine. There were two variants of the 3600B series, a 3600B with a square shaped plunge base and a 3600BR with a round plunge base, same motor etc in variant, just the base changed. I believe there was also a 3600 unit which used similar motor internals in a different motor housing and fixed base configuration.

The 3600B series was the ancestor of the 3612 and later RF plunge units. I have never come across 36003 router in the flesh or in catalogues and suspect that the letter B has a damaged leading stroke and has been interpreted as number 3 when reading the data plate.

Just trying to clarify things in case interested people want to do a search for the model etc.
