Freud, Bosch, Otherfor Raised Panel Doors - Woodworking Talk

dnscmn · 09-07-2008, 02:37 PM

I am considering the Bosch 1619EVS, Freud FT3000 VCE, other >3hp routers to be used primarily for raised panel doors. Will be the only router in the shop, used under the table and out. Which is recommended? Which is easiest for height adjustment/bit changing while under the table? Any info is appreciated.

Of those two, the Freud has more above table adjustments.

You might want to consider a variable speed box for the router...you don`t want to over work the router. Some panel raising bits cause alot of vibration when used in a router! Just a thought from experience. Rick
