Hi d-i-y'all
I just came out of hibernation and attempted to buy a variable speed
controller for my router from the only source I could find: Woodcraft.
That is "Woodcraft Supply Corp, an SBR Company of the USA".
It looks a lot like they ship internationally on their checkout forms.
This may be only to US service personnel though, as the process
wouldn't accept my post code when combined with a "State" of: "[Not
Applicable]".
Apparently the cave men were just as smart as we are but didn't have
such complicated forms.
Any road up, can someone tell me of any sources for these items in the
civilised world as an alternative?

If you're handy with a soldering iron, Maplin do a drill speed controller
kit.

5.5 amp max, so should be ok for most routers.

Part Number is VE90 at 20 quid.

I used one with a drill in a bench stand for many years.
