Reading victorludlum's opening posts again, I have the sneaking suspicion that the router you have is a copy of mine - the Bosch GKF600

I discovered at the weekend just how useful the fine adjustment wheel is.  With the base in the 'lock' position but the buckle undone, you can turn the thumbwheel to get everything just-so.  For some daft reason I never bothered with it before.  If yours has the same, have a play with it - it got me some very precise cuts over the weekend.

The bits should turn up this week, so hopefully I'll be playing with it at the weekend.

Cool - I promise to stop wittering on all over your thread now!  Think I'm coming off as some sort of router obsessive

Has anyone warned you about router and router bit GAS yet? It can get as serious as guitar acquisition once you go down the wormhole...

We might have to start a new section of the forum; it'll be a bit like AA!
