Review on π§ DEWALT DNP617 Compact Router with Centering Capability by Dave Johnson
Essential router tool, but could be better.
If you move and change baseplates, you will need to re-center the base when reinstalling. This will help both quickly and easily. It works great with a 1/4" collet, but the other end is smaller than 1/2" (why? That's a silly decision since 1/2" is the other standard size) so it works with the bigger size doesn't work .Also plastic so over time it can wear and loosen on the steel shaft - then you can buy another one.
Pros
- Simply insert the pin into the router's collet, place the cone on the pin and; Tighten the screws on the mounting plate
Cons
- Expandable
