I have been looking at the PC 694VK and the Hitachi KM12VC routers. Both have the fixed and plunge bases that come with them. I cannot decide which one to purchase. Tool Crib has them for nearly the same price. I primarily will be using it for routing dovetails on my Leigh jig and for misc operations. I will not be using it in a router table. Which one do you folks like the best for these operations? The Hitatchi has a 1/2 more HP. I don't think it would make that much difference for what I want to use it for. Thanks for your opinions,
