    Got the Carbatec version of the same thing, it was given to me.

    Have not yet used it, but was planning on having a go this week.

    I use TREND'S DJ600 and have had no problems. Uses the same principal design as Festool's but much cheaper. Once the router bit has been accurately set, the joints are beautiful...
