Hello,

I am looking to buy my first router. At the moment I anticipate only
using it for occasional DIY so I do not want to spend a fortune on it.
I'm sure once I've got the hang of it, I'll be using it all the time
and will want to upgrade to something better

For now though I was looking for an entry level router to learn with.
The cheapest at Screwfix is a Titan router, order code 31965. (Ok,
they actually do a cheaper one by Direct Power, but this is a 1/4"
collet and reading the DIY wiki faq it says 1/2" is stronger).

Has anyone got anything good or bad to say about this model?

Thanks.

Dunno about that one but I bought a Trend some years ago, just the entry
level one and its been excellent:--)

Theres not a lot that hasn't been able to do including nip the end off
my middle finger!..

And just recently I've takes to milling bits of ally with it and thats a
fine old edge it makes on that too

Far better then that PPro heap of cack I bought from B&Q...
