Do you plunge your trim router?
I’m going to buy the cordless Makita trim router, but am in two minds as to what to buy.
They offer two kits, the basic kit, which contains a base and fence, and another with an additional angled and plunge bases. The full kit costs an extra $100.
My immediate need is for the basic kit, but don’t want to forgo the extra two bases if I’m going to kick myself in a couple of months, and then pay over the odds to buy the plunge base.
My need is routing channels in box lids for inlays, and am keen to give Derek’s half blind dovetail technique a whirl.
I already own a large plunge router that is mostly mounted under the table, but need something smaller and easier to handle for fine tasks.
Thoughts from those who are old hats at little routers would be greatly appreciated.
Ta,
Lance
