Routers!
Yeehaww - RRT - Router Round-up Time
The result of a little tidy up of the power tool cabinet.
Just about a router for every task and bit. The two Ryobis on the right have follower collars which have turned out to be inaccurate and a bit of a disaster, so I have to take the plates off them and assign them another task.
The 1/2" collar Makita at the back and its Chinese knock off to the left of it are also unreliable as no matter how much I tighten the bits and put expensive sleeves in them, they drop the drop a bit down by as much as 2mm over a 1/2 period when operating - therefore the 1/2" routers never get used.
So my work horses are the el cheapo Cobras in the middle, the Ryobi with the Jasper Jig and the other Ryobi with my favourite cab trimming and routing bits ( to the left ).
I bought these over the years when there's been a special on so I've spent no more than $NZ 750 ( $US 585 ) on all those tools there

You need a few hundred more to compete....I'm sure.
