Do you think that the Freud would be a reasonable purchase to be
fitted permanently in a router table, Andy?
I'm getting fed up with taking others in and out. Is there a fine
height adjustment on it suitable for this application?
That is where my Freud spends most of its life...
Yes its actually very good in the table. The fine height adjuster is
built in, and is a large and substantial control that is easy to use.
The speed controller is good as well - it goes down low enough to make
it safe using big cutters, and it has feedback control - so the speed
stays constant even under load. (one implication of this is you can't
use the sound of the motor note to judge the cutting load - hence you
have to think more carefully about exactly what you are asking from it!)
