well I do know for sure...it can't get the kids ready for school, it can't go to work for you...and I don't think it can make cappacuino ;D ;D |

The only other thing limiting routes, besides what skirge66 side :P , is it's fairly large size. It's hard to get at places without a 3"-4" clearing sideways and 6"-12" clearing above, like near the inside corners of boxes. It helps to route before you put those pieces together. *shrug* Example: The lines are peices of wood, the numbers spots trying to route. | 1 3 | |___________________________| 2 Spots 1 and 2 (from the underside) are fine. Spot 3 from the inside is too close to the side piece. That's what the dremel is for. |

you can cut the size problem down little, i have a dremel with a router attachment works well for tighter spaces, and smaller still if I use the cutting attachment for it. Wouldn't recomend using a dremel for your entire project, but it sure comes in handy used along with a normal router. If i remember correctly it was oscar that turned me on to them...since I bought mine it has seen endless use, by far the most useful tool I ever bought...it cuts, drills, routes, trims, trenches...now if I could just find a painting bit :P I'd be in there |
