Aldi have two on offer one at Ł49.99 and one at Ł59.99, they are
probably cheap and cheerful but will probably do a better job than any
solution using a pillar drill as a router. You never know you might
even find some uses in other jobs .

Skip the Aldi tools, get a machine mart / Clarke for the same price.
Much better. I've had too many failures with Aldi stuff.



Go to Lidl, then. Although they only do special offers, not had a failure
with any of their power tools. And they have a three year warranty.


I've not had your luck with Lidl tools either. Like Aldi, they have to offer 3yr gtees to get people to buy them.
