January 13, 201313 yr Yesterday while researching trim routers I came across this package deal from Amazon. Yesterday it was on sale for $175.00 but now it's up to $183.00 which is still a good deal I think. Have any of you guys got any knowledge on this trim router? How does it compare to the Bosch Colt?http://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-DWP611PK-Torque-Variable-Compact/dp/B0049ZFUK2/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1358094590&sr=1-1&keywords=dewalt+palm+routerwww.thepatriotwoodworker.com Proud Supporter of Homes For Our Troops

January 14, 201313 yr I like Dewalt Routers. For the last year I've been building a small collecting of 611's. I do a lot small edge work and laminate and I hate changing bits all the time. I'll let the two reviews at the links below convince you. The first review is very good. I'm not sure if you have to be a member to read them or not. If you can't get in let me know and I see if get you there somehow.  http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?153632-Dewalts-new-baby-... http://www.patwarner.com/dw611.html Somewhere in Kenya.... a village is missing its idiot!

January 14, 201313 yr Author Thanks for the link and your help Richard but I already ordered the Bosch. I've read several hours of reviews for both the Dewalt & the Bosch. I only saw a couple of bad reviews for each and of those I attribute some to inexperience based on the reasons given. I am normally a Dewalt fan but have been impressed with the Bosch reputation as well. Time will tell and I'll post a review when the Bosch arrives and I have a chance to use it. Thanks again Rich! www.thepatriotwoodworker.com Proud Supporter of Homes For Our Troops
