Fixed vs. Plunge Router...
PedroSilva:
Hi,
Here's another option ... the advantage is that it solves other power tool problems ... ;D

You know for a little standalone control panel I made over Christmas for a friend, I didn't have a slot cutting bit available to me so I just got a thin table saw blade and ran all the edges of the control panel top along the blade and it turned out perfect. I was suprised it did such a nice job.

More to think about... ;) So it is possible to use a fixed router to route holes for buttons and what not? But, it is harder to do?
Zinfari:
If you plan on using the router to do holes for buttons... go plunge. However I always drill mine out so what I would recommend is a laminate trim router. Much less expensive. Light weight and still PLENTY of power for the T-moling notch. They are so much easier to work with unless you need additional power. It's the only router I used for my cab and of course if you are doing laminate... you already have the perfect tool for trimming that as well. A router will work, but again the trim router is less $ and much lighter.

Can a laminate router be bought at a Home Depot or other regular hardware stores?
