well...I done and did it

Care to jot down some thoughts after using it for a while?

cheers,

Greg

Nothing better than a great wifey and new tools. Congratulations and lets us know how you like the router. Ted

Last time my wife told me I needed a new vice I suggested I take up chasing women -- kinda made me wish I hadn't gotten her that .38 for Christmas a couple of years back.

Dean,

I've read it. I've also read the review by Pat Warner at

I am hoping to see a cross-section of opinions, hence the request. I have yet to see comments by anyone putting one under heavy usage.

cheers,

Greg

My usage wouldn't count has heavy...but here's my 2c, anyway. I got mine for xmas last year and have used it on a few small projects, so far. It has almost exclusively been used in the table (which is why I bought it, of course).

The above-the-table bit changing, automatic shaft lock and easy height adjustment is everything I'd hoped for. The soft-start took a little getting-used-to when used in hand - I've used had this feature before. I have grown accustomed to it.

The (included) edge guide is quite slick...although I've only used it in circle-cutting mode - which worked quite nicely. The dust-collection seems to work reasonably well, but it doesn't catch everything, particularly when routing in the table. I'm quite fond of the safety lock-out feature.

I just got the template-bushing kit this week. I've installed it and it seems pretty well-engineered, but I haven't used it, yet.

In my opinion, if you're buying a large router for table use, the Triton should be on the A-list.

Thanks Chris,

Greg

There is some feed back at Amazon.com... Not real favorable especially with units bought 8 or 9 months ago. Seems there is a problem with the switch getting filled with saw dust and not working and less than acceptable run out at the collet. Out of 8 users the average rating is 2.5 stars out of a possible 5.
