Good find Big ALL,

I haven't seen them for years. I thought that when Ryobi moved to that horrible green/yellow colour they might have brought them back out. :dunno:

What size is the collet do you know.

Cheers guys.

I might buy one. All my bits are 1/4 so I am interested. Just bought a few trend bits from BandPOO last night.

I use my router mostly for decorative edges. I'm not sure if this tool will be able to achieve this.

I am going to america for a holiday next year. I wonder if I will be able to purchase one over there.

they are about £35-40 over there
the maximum i would do in one pass is around 3.5x7mm or 5x5mm

just be warned it caines the batteries so don't get one unless you have more than 3x1.7ah or 4x1.5 ah or 2x 2.4 li-ions for if you require to work more than 10-15m worth off cuts
