Loring is a very well respected wealth of encyclopedic type knowledge on tools (among other things!), but to the best my knowledge Ryobi no longers makes the Craftsman routers. AFAIK, they are now made by Chervon Power. Either way, they're getting pretty good reports from owners for being good value.

(my sincere and humble apologies if I'm mistaken!)

There's even a thread on here about it.

For 30" that is a good price.

Knotscott is equally respected source of information in my book. Thanks for pointing out my error. I would correct myself to say that Ryobi made many and probably the majority of the Craftsman routers in the period from at least the mid 1970's well into the early 2000s.

The mounting hole pattern was distinctly that of Ryobi and Craftsman. I think the mounting hole pattern is perpetuated even today on the subsequent Craftsman routers and router tables. Ergo the unfortunate choice of hole patterns on the original BT3 router mounting plates took only certain Ryobi and Craftsman routers.
