I currently have 2 routers (a Ryobi fixed based w/a 1/4" collet and a Hitachi M12V plunge router with a 1/2" collect), but I would like to purchase another. The Hitachi works great in a router table. It is powerful with easy adjustment and a soft start. I bought the Ryobi when I first starterd woodworking about 10 years ago and I have out-grown it.
I would like a fixed base router with 1/2" collet that is easier to use than the Hitachi. I have been thinking about a Porter Cable 691 with a D-handle. It looks like a good balance between power and easier handling. Does anyone have this router? Any thoughts or comments?
