I've got a friend that recently bought himself a Kreg router lift. He wants at least a 2.25 hp motor or more to go in it.
Your suggestions please on one.

This is a HORRIBLE suggestion.
The MRF23 will not work in a Kreg lift - or any other for that matter.
Because of the in handle trigger arrangement there d be no practical way to turn the router on and off.

no you sure never worry about hurting someones feelings that for sure.i just think you could have been a little less insulting to jim.Your opinion .
Some may be thankful they didn't order a Bosch mrf23 for lift use because of a faulty LJ suggestion.
One that not only is erroneous, but wasn't vetted by the person giving said suggestion.
If hurt feelings are the cost of faulty suggestions, then so be it.
No bodily fluids were exchanged.

The trigger & on lock in the handles of the 23 "talk" to the motor via three buss bars on the housing. It is only functional with one of the 23 bases, that's it. Can't be easily used in a lift even if it fits. I'm sure you could Rube Goldberg something if your were really committed, but would it be safe ?im confused that bosh router has a lock on button could that not still be used in a lift or table?

I'm not trolling anyone. You gave a router suggestion that simply won't work. You gave it based on no firsthand knowledge of the router or the lift. Now , If you or anyone else finds the correction of factual errors as disrespectful, then I'm sorry - we'll just have to disagree.xedos,
I always find it amusing that people like yourself who are afraid to use their real names and have zero projects, zero blogs, zero reviews must just want to troll people or perhaps you must just b lonely and what to be noticed (sic). So why don t just chill and enjoy this great forum and the people in it. I don t intend to respond to your rude post again.

Now who's disrespectful ?hey xedos why you gotta be a d@#k h!@d all the time.jim is an upstanding member here,something you will never aspire for.your comments are always just sad.

If you'd really read my comment , I said that it was unlikely you or your friend would be interested in any of the routers I posted. This just illustrates the hypocrisy around here. I offered some links of routers I like just like Jim did. One difference is I own and use all of them - unlike his suggestion. Another is Jim's got a pass for suggestions that won't because he's a blogger and has buddies. Seriously ?As far as those routers you said I would be interested in, nope.

I know a woodworker that has the 2.25 Bosch routers also and he swears by them.I have 2 Kreg router lifts and Bosch 2.25 routers in both and have no issues even when cutting raised panels for cabinets.
