Well I picked up my new router. It is going to be hanging like a Bat under the router table and is replacing the 16 year old Bosch. The Bosch gave notice 2 weeks ago that it was time for a promotion and I have had to find a replacement. ;~)
I got the router that can be compared to the Pontiac Aztec if one were to pick a vehicle as a comparison. The owners manual is a bit discerning. The first 2 pages went something like Norm and his safety intro. Page 3 was a trouble shooting guide... Hummmm.. And then came the instructions. I need a new dictionary to understand the lingo. Clockwise for up, Anti-clockwise for down... Anti-clockwise? And then there is the "Spares Listing". Every single part of the router is listed. I sure hope I don't not need all those "Spares" If I do need something from the Spares Listing, I have to contact a ..... "Stockist".
I'll report back after I get the router settled in at its new home and I have had a chance to let it get acquainted with the old Bosch 1611 which will be ever watchful over the newbie.
