Hey, if you can be the developer, great! It ought to be a success for the number of people I know who are inumbdated with router choices! I keep going through a cycle of thinking THIS might be the one, but then it's not VS, or it's heavy, or something in the reviews throws a caution flag. It's driving me up the wall. So, we start with the "narrowing down" feature. Then we start adding reviews. The site catches on so well that we have sponsers begging us for ad space and we bid it out month to month. Only 5 sponsers allowed at a time, but it's a minimum of $5K per month. They'll do it because WE'LL have the power! Mwaaaah-Haaaa-Haaa! I _think_ I'm looking for a 1 3/4HP (light weight), 1/2" collet, variable speed router, possibly with a D-Handle. The D-Handle comes in because some of the choices that I otherwise like are getting mentions in reviews of "awkward to turn off/on", "dangerous switch position"... stuff like that. So I was thinking a D-Handle because of the trigger control. That, and I saw Norm using one! ![smile \:\)](/boards/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)

Sorry, my web development days are 10 years behind me and it was just a few side projects for internal office stuff. Things have changed so much I wouldn't know where to begin. With your research into templates and such, you now have more expertise in modern web design than I do.

HA! Your second wrong assumption this morning. My research into templates most cenetered around a few simple criteria: Does it maintain aspect ratio for photos, is there provision for video clips, and is it bright and shiny? ![smile \:\)](/boards/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)

Mark, Milwaukee makes a nice D-handle for a reasonable price...no, I don't own one, but when you get yours tell me if it's any good. ![grin](/boards/images/graemlins/default/grin.gif)

Yeah, I was looking at this one as one of the top contenders. It might get trumped though, as I received a sale notice from Rockler with the P-C for $99!!! Hell, I might buy two! I've joined a NH woodworkers group and have a meeting tomorrow morning. On the way back, I'm hoping to pick up a dovetail jig on sale at Woodcraft and then go to Rockler for the router!
