Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but don't you need a plunge router to cut the slots for T-molding? i've never used a fixed base router, so i'm curious... |

You can use one with a slot-cutter just fine. |

Something to remember if you think you are underpowered - you can make more than one shallow pass (cutting things a little wide) and then a final cleanup pass cutting the full thickness. To do this, though, you need to be able to trust whatever you are using as a guide. The other thing - SPRING FOR THE CARBIDE CUTTERS! They cost more, but well worth it. |

For those on a tight budget, but wanting better tools, you can try pawn shops. I used to shoot TV commercials for a pawn shop and found that construction workers sometimes have to pawn tools during slow times to make ends meet. |
