This Bosch is really nice. I've poked around the thing (it's raining, so I can't actually USE it today...), but so far I'm pretty happy. I'll have to do some adaptations on my table to use it properly, but so far I'm pretty happy.

Ken, I have the same router (w plunge and fixed bases). It's one of the best, if not the best in it's class.

It's one of the best, if not the best in it's class. Always get a smirk out of the term BEST IN ITS CLASS. Who defines these classes? Compare it against a Festool and then tell me who has the better router.. but that might not be fare as Festool might be part of a different class.

If someone wants to spend 2 or 3 times as much money on a tool that does the same thing...it's a free country.

As is almost always the case, I am sure that the determination is made by white, middle-aged, heterosexual men. Matt! That means it's a jury of your peers! Whoa! Dude! (If I knew how to span the entire width of a post page with a smiley face that diameter, I would.)
Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

If only I could afford to buy Festool, then I might fall into that upper crusty crowd too.
But I am happy to buy tools I can afford and use them.

Bosch is about the limit on tool brands I want to spend... Festools are gorgeous, but I never want to touch one lest I want it very badly.

Got a good start on the sofa table for the bar stool row in my HT. Needs some varathane. An old sewing machine table and some Ash planks from an old pallet and poof. Total cost 60$. But buying the stools will kill me for sure....
