Cutting boards.

Yup . You get it at Lowes ? It's all about options and conveineince .
I put that one on the palm router plunge base , then bought an Omni base for the larger Bosch that came with 12 collars . You can also buy other jig attachments for it that just clip on and off .

I just got a couple hundred peices of sand paper in . Been sitting on the work table .
Took a couple hours this morning and got some of it hanging on the board .
The rest stored away for restock .

Just finished another small table out of hard maple .

Currently 8 degrees here , so taking time to burn up a bunch of scrap in the fire place .
Should be nice and toasty by movie time .

I got it from Home Depot through the exchange. I have a lot of sandpaper that I need to put away. Looking at ways to store it. I haven't been in the shed for a few weeks. I can heat it to where I'm comfortable. But the drifts to get there is something I don't want to deal with. If I had the John Deere. Then I'd take care of that!

Just do a test run first . I don't think that square base is centered on the chuck .
Clamp a straight edge on a board and make a cut 6 or so inches long . Then rotate to another side and see if it lines up with the first cut . Do all sides so you know .
They sell a clear round base for those . I think they're about 10 bucks .

Did some looking. And the base is centered to the chuck. I am. However. Seeing a issue with using the guide pin set up on this. There no holes to mount the base. Did you have to drill holes to use on the colt. Or just used it on the larger routers.

Edit: I need to get a sub base for it. Which I already ordered. And it fits on the plunge base.

fits on the plunge base.

I originaly had it on the bigger Bosch . Then I bought this Omni plate and it came with bushings .
So I put the Bosch set up on the plunge base like you did .
I bought this one because I thought I could buy the add on acc seperarate , turns out you can't . Seems strange to me that you have to buy another base with the different acc . I need to contact them .

I thought that was odd as well. Oh well.

I did send them an email , and they got right back to me . Basically saying the kits are priced taking into account the base is included in all of them . Easier for them to do it that way .
It makes sense ,,, I guess .
I've seen the base price from $ 50 to $ 80 depending on where you get it . I ran up to Lowes to see if they had any . Both boxes were damaged , and marked down to $44.00 . Grabbed the top one , and started to leave , and noticed the other box looked different .
It was the same circle jig , but also had the offset base included for the same money .
Walked out for 48 bucks . It's worth that easy .

Should be nice . I have a smaller one , and a home made one , but you have to set them up to use . This way , you just set the router with the turn lock base on and engage it .

Hell... The floor model is 73% off ($880 off) ... Wouldn't need bench space...

I've been looking at them for awhile. But the shipping always turned me off. I'll like the extra counter space now!

 

[ifitsdeadsmokeit]

Damn, $320 for a floor model. May have to make a trip to Springfield and sell my drill press.

[DRKsmoking]

Now that is a deal for sure.

New to me on the oscillating feature. I have a large HD bench top one and a large disc and belt sander ( stand alone )

Or I would be checking if it would be free delivery up here.... I bet not. LOL

Drill press shipped too. The lift gate service will be handy. Thing weighs 140 pounds!

 

[chopsaw]

lift gate service

I know I checked the box when ordered . It also showed up on the original invoice .
When I got the shipped notice , it says 2 items . One being liftgate service . I went and looked at the info just to double check . Liftgate service is checked and says " 1 " , but the new invoice doesnt list the charge .

Never mind . They added it to the price of the saw . My back feels better now .
