DeWalt router

Hi Ed

I got one of these kits at a woodworking show for $229 and have really enjoyed it. I lucked out and got a second motor for it from ebay. I keep it mounted in my router table. I use the D-handle alot with my Leigh Dovetail Jig. I already had a Dewalt DW625 plunge router so I haven't used that base and am thinking about putting on Ebay. I really like the set.

I purchased the 618B through Amazon for $244 with shipping and I love it. I mounted the standard base to my router table insert and use the D handle or the plunge base for hand routing. Fast, easy change overs. Nice smooth start too. The only negative comment I have is that it's a bit of a pain to hold the pin in to change bits, but that really falls into the minor nusance category. I highly recommend this router.

I have been very happy with a DeWalt 621. If I had to do it over, I would get the kit you are looking at due to its versatility.
