I was meaning DW service centres in the US. Don't think that the UK can get
hold of them - they're not sold in the EU for the 621.


Ah, OK.

In that case try www.grainger.com

They will certainly ship U.S. DW spares to the UK - I've done it.

Type DW621 into the search and you will get a complete parts list and
exploded view.


However, you might want to add some other things to make the shipping
cost worth it.



Will have a look at the trend ones though to see if they are compatible.
I'd rather build up a collection of 1/2" cutters than 1/4" ones, if nothing
else for the strength of the shaft and so I can use them without changing
collets if I ever decide to get a 1/2" router to sling in a table.



I agree. I tend to use 1/4" cutters in my small Trend T5 and 1/2" in
the DW625, although I do have a 1/4" collet for the DW625.
