Double is a small price to pay to save a finger.
I wouldn't be surprised if these replace table saws in mill shops where you have 100 of them and usually one ambulance per day show up. Not just for liability, but imagine having to cover a $300 ride per day, plus pay the huge insurance. I wonder if they could incorporate the same sensor technology in routers using a clutch, so the shaft would disengage from any torque. Routers are dangerous because they are usually partially hidden by the work, genarally run smooth, and people are comfortable getting really close, until a bit flies out or a piece of end grain kicks out. Just a thought
I have a little Bosch, I love it. But if you're going to use it for undermount go with the Porter Cable. The router has a spiral-cut groove in it, so if you want to make even the slightest adjustment, all you have to do is unlock the base and give it a slight turn. I believe you can only get the Porter Cable with the spiral design in the smaller models, which is fine unless you want to chuck up a huge panel bit. I think you can get the Porter Cable with a fixed base and a plunge base. I mount the fixed-base to a home-made router table and keep the plunge base for free-hand work. Hope that helps. Oh, and whatever router you go with, I would recommend variable speed. God bless
I hadn't thought of that.But does it cut hot dogs?
