I have the Dewalt DWP611PK compact router, 1-1/4 hp with a fixed base, plunge base and carry bag. I recently picked it up and have put it to use and am very impressed with it. Plenty of power, easy to handle, has great features and appears to be of great quality. I got mine from Home Depot but see that Rockler has it on sale right now for $159. I have an older Craftsman router but wanted something with a plunge base for sign making and other purposes, thus went with the Dewalt. My Craftsman can now maintain it’s residence in the router table and save the hassle of switching from the table to portable use. It may be $9 over your budget, but it is brand new and a great functioning machine. https://www.rockler.com/dewalt-dwp611pk-compact-router -- ~Art~ |
