what router.........
Hi all,
It has been asked probably many times in the past but since the tools evolve rapidly, previous answers might not be relevant anymore.
Anyway, I am after a new router for handheld use only.
I already have a triton (the big one) which is permanently mounted in a table and I find it to heavy for handheld usage.
Also the depth adjustment is not good enough to my taste (the thumbwheels always move up/down because of the vibrations hence you can not repeat the same cut with the same depth).
I would like your opinions on the following brands (and model if you have any in mind):
- dewalt
- makita
- festool (I know that most of them will probably recommend festool )
- eventually hitachi
I am after one router where I can use bush guide. However from what I read on carbatec website, to use the bush guide you need a router with a plate of a certain size (not sure if the size they are talking about is a standard size or not)
Thanks again
Eric
anyway thanks for your input.

EMistral, try posting this in the router section of the forum and you might get a better result.
SBPower corrupts, absolute power means we can run a hell of alot of power tools
