    Default Laminator Trimmer

    Hi
    I'm thinking of buying a Makita trimmer 3709X. I need to get in a tight spot. Does anybody know the distance between the centreline of the collet to the nearest guide edge on the square baseplate? I understand the dimensions of the plate are 82 x 90 which may suggest the distance I have asked about is half the smaller dimension ie 41mm. Is a smaller basplate available or an offset baseplate?

    There is an new Makita Laminate Trimmer model RT0700CX that comes with a fixed base, a plunge base and a tilt base. It also has an optional offset base. I don't think it is available in Australia yet.

    Buy Makita RT0700CX2 Router Trimmer from Axminster, fast delivery for the UK

    The RTO700CX is available in Australia now. $164 from Bunnings where I live, but only comes with a fixed base.

    The trimmer looks great i have an older model which a great tool to have.
    I have inmported tools form the UK and looking at one of the mafel saws..last time enquired maybe 18 months ago the postage from the UK for a router was almost the same as the cost of the machine.
