(but w/o the 10%-off coupon) But now, what do I have? Anyone know the difference between this and the 7529? Both are listed on the P-C web site, and the descriptions look nearly identical. One has a "powerful" 12-amp motor, while the other has a "heavy duty" 12-amp motor!?!? What else is the difference? -- Alex Make the obvious change in the return address to reply by email. |

The 8529 has a "micro plunge adjustment" feature which makes it really handy to stick in your router table. It also has a hole in the base into which you can insert a knob through the router table to adjust the bit height without reaching under the table. It's pretty dern sweet.
