I have the same Skil router and love it! Thanks for the heads up about the guide bushings - just bought a set! BTW, the Harbor Freight Hercules 12amp plunge / foxed base router is almost IDENTICAL to the skil.. same base plate, same plunge and fixed bases - it just looks like the Skil 10 amp model RT1323-00 , I bought it and it is now permanently in my router table - it works GREAT! HINT - separate the router base from the motor then put the guide bushing onto the base plate :)
@EEEZSolutionS - Thanks for your comment! It’s cool that you also have the same router. I love mine as well and I loved the price for the set as well. Have you used the HF bushing set yet?! I wonder for the Hercules and Skil have the same manufacturing company. This is the 3rd or 4th product that someone says there is an identical product from a different company. What router table do you use? And hey, that’s genius! I never thought about that. Doing that TODAY! Thank you! Please like, share, and subscribe to my channel!
@@GothamDIYandMore I bought the HF bushings and they are awesome!! Gonna use the 1/2" this weekend. The fixed base and plunge base, including base plates for the Skil and Hercules are IDENTICAL and they are interchangeable!! In fact, the Hercules base plates are actually slightly better - they are perfectly round and centered and the SKil are not!! My girlfriend, now wife, bought me, as a gift, the little Skil SRT1039 router table. I've made some mod to it and it works pretty well... I'm just a weekend woodworker so don't yet need an expensive table. I built a rolling cart with drawers for it for the most part I can do just about anything I need. Do you have a router table? Best, Larry
@EEEZSolutionS - I love all the input. It blows my mind that HF has some better quality control than Skil but that’s why I love HF so much! Sounds like a great gift and I can see why she’s your wife now! Lol Please share any updates with me about your projects!
