I was looking around for a large fixed base router, for a

Does anyone know of a larger fixed base, handheld router?

220V wouldn't be a problem.

BTY you can buy just the motor for the PC if that is all you are
interested in.


FWIW Milwaukee is actually claiming 3.5 hp now.

They might as well claim 10 horsepower. It would be just as true as claiming
3.5. On 120 volt, 15 amp circuit, 2.41 horsepower is all you can get and
that only if assuming 100% efficiency.

You have to look at how some companies rate horsepower. They may run
it at 125% in a frozen eviorment and take the last reading they had
before it disintegrated.
