Have a look in a good newsagent, there are woodworking mags that specialise in routers/routing. Usually have small projects in too :thumbright:

People forget how fast you did a job - but they remember how well you did it.

Thanks for the replies people.

Loads of info already thanks to the sites that you posted.

Panlid,

At the moment I want to just learn the basics. Hence getting the cheap one. Eventually I am looking at making furniture.
