Hi all, I've searched the forums and the very many 'which router to get' posts but my needs are somewhat different. I currently spin router bits in a variety of ways-
With a 3hp induction motor, belt drive to a high speed spindle on a lift through a cast iron table.
With a Festool 1010EQ 1/4" / 8mm plunge router.
With a Shaper Origin 'cnc' handheld robot router.
When I got the Shaper Origin I decommissioned my overarm pin (pattern) router system as the 40 year old Milwaukee router had burned out and I didn't think I would need it anymore. However I find I miss it and want to get it up and going again. So, I need a good, solid, powerful 1/2" capacity and I don't need plunge, lift, or any other features. In fact I'll put the base away and probably never use it.
In order to fit on the arm it must have a round body.
Any ideas are most appreciated.
