Re: [ATM] Suggestions on a Router?

[Pete <lenses@adelphia.net>]

My only suggestion coming from someone also who has bought and used 
quite a number of routers.
Buy the best you can afford and you will be happy.
On a negative side, DON'T buy from Department stores (no names here, you 
guess) had nothing but
bad luck with stuff that is good for very occasional use and with no 
accuracy and life of product.
Milwaukee makes a nice router, and the Porter Cable is Ok also.
Get something made of metal not plastic.
Good luck,
Pete
