Porter Cable 7518 or 7519 - which do you prefer ?

[LarryG]

The 7518, which I have in my router table.

I suppose commercial shops that run a router literally all day long might have a use for the 7519. But why would a hobbyist buy a big bruiser of a router like this that cannot be slowed down for use with larger bits?

[Jeffrey Schronce]

Without question 7518, citing Larrys reasoning.

Point well taken guys !

Now if you find some 7519s under a pile of packaging supplies and want to sell it for $50 . . . . . .
