I bought one from Amazon, just arrived. I tried reading the instructions but I tend to learn better by watching so I saw your channel.I'm not a wood worker nor carpenter by any means but after watching I have a better idea, thanks much. I bought it to save time setting in hinges . I figured it was worth the money.
Thank you. Just got a 110 model just like this one. I had almost the exact same problem with the edge and roller guides and the attachment screw. The screw I got to attach them is almost 1/2 inch too long to hold the guides. I'll work on a solution and probably keep the router.
Same with mine Dan, but also it was too tight to screw in by hand. I ran a tap through it to cut better threads and ground it a bit shorter and it's brilliant now.
I have one like this different color. Main switch at the top, no trust, all the time i remove it the plug, with inaccuracy fence as you demo in video, trying to improve, and a box of router bits 6mm 35 euros i buy it a year ago. Ok i manage it! Thanks for your video.
And if you take it apart you will find the metal casing is not earthed and its 50/50 if its switched on the live or neutral. I have four of them set up in custom jigs. I have rewired all of them. Good value if you have the skills to make them safe, and if you don't, but something better.
Just tested mine and the metalwork is floating, but yes the double insulated squares on the label really don't apply to something with so much exposed metal. I'll fuse at 5A and see if the cable has an earth wire and bond it if practicable.
They have an even cheaper version now, it's 15 quid. They fixed the bolt issues and even include a decent flush bit! They did however do away with the metal housing, it's all plastic now.
I am desperately trying to find a video or something on making a display for my gemstone eggs and spheres. I want to make various size crescent cuts in wood slices that will hold the gems. My eggs are all different sizes. I have an idea of what I want and bought an inexpensive router and Baihens 1/4 Inch Shank Cove Box Router Bit Set Solid Double Flute Nose Bits. Help?
I randomly bought this trimmer last week. It came with no instructions or pictures of how all the parts are supposed to work lol just warnings not to use it in the bathtub. Still don't know how to use them after this but a good video anywaus
@dmgladden David, please let me apologise because not for one second did I think that you hadn't cut the power off. I was just in one of those moments in time when I had nothing to say, do, or think about other than what I was watching on the TV. I was contemplating making both a planer thicknesser and a router/milling jig so that I could, in some way permanently attach to my bench-saw table. Why don't you play around with the idea as it would save time and space. I've got an idea of what I am looking for but I haven't got a clue how to turn an idea into a practical workshop-friendly machine 😅. I enjoyed the video but I think I'd rather spend a few quid more than trying to make the parts stay where they should be. 😂👍
Can you review some cheap router bits please... I use the lidl ones and for 15 euro for 12 bits is great value.. I have the katsu trim router fantastic value for 25 quid
By now, you know she's got a good kick, so hang on to her or she is gona get away 😂 Also wondering if you could use a varible speed setup on it without burning out the winding?
Hi Paul I've never had my hands on that one but in was told this is a copy of the Makita but I have Makita ones and it's got a lot of differences, but that's for the info
I just got a dewinner that's an exact clone of the Makita. Even has the aluminum base for 50$. So far seems really nice. Haven't used it hard yet but has lots of power and the motor sounds really smooth. I mainly just need one for cove moulding and a round over bit so it should be fine for that
Hi david im new to your channel im going to be making some bee hives out of wbp plywood that will need so groves cutting out and doing rabbit joints do you think this machine is up to the job thanks oh also ive hit your grey bell
Hi Roy first thank you for your support. If you had a very good cutter bit and you really take your time yes it might but for what you are wzntingbto do I would have thought a couple of passes on the saw table would be quicker, or powersaw and straightedge
@evergladescreations9641, yes I had the same problem but I was able to correct it by taking the router motor out of the plastic holder and wrapping the motor with a layer or two of black wide Gorilla tape and that make the router fit snuggly in the plastic holder, also you could also prevent from moving by using a large hose clamp, hope this, although this was a year ago you probably found a solution.
Hi and thanks for the comment and yes your right its always best to be safe as foor me i use this tools at work in some of the most difficult places i guess i get a sense for the danger and to be honest i find routers to be a tame tool

It comes with a rounded sanding paper. Can you please me what is it for?
Thanks for the video.

I guess for the price we have to expect the quality as not being very high just be careful when using it and if possible have a spare on hand

Just got 1 off amazon with 15 bits for £39 and it’s spot on
Brand, Model ????
Almost forgot, have you ended up getting the tongue and groove set that comes in smaller than the 1/4 inch collet? If so, how do you use it?
i used my silvel router 5 times and the motor went out, will the company send me another one?

Hello David, looking forward to more router videos.

I randomly bought this trimmer last week. It came with no instructions or pictures of how all the parts are supposed to work lol just warnings not to use it in the bathtub. Still don't know how to use them after this but a good video anywaus
You fitted the routing bit without disconnecting your power supply 😢
Hi have no fear it was turned off just I cut that part both off and on just didn't think it was a point I needed to enfersice
@dmgladden David, please let me apologise because not for one second did I think that you hadn't cut the power off.

I enjoyed the video but I think I'd rather spend a few quid more than trying to make the parts stay where they should be. 😂👍

very good video,thanks 10/10

Hi does this router have a plunge feature?
No not really, just set the depth before you start
Can you review some cheap router bits please... I use the lidl ones and for 15 euro for 12 bits is great value..
I have the katsu trim router fantastic value for 25 quid
Hi mate yes I just did watch for my next video, and that's for watching
Nice insight !!!
😂😂 wish I could understand all of what yr saying. Here in Oz we pay $58 for this Ozito Laminate trimmer.
Sorry Yorkshire lol
By now, you know she's got a good kick, so hang on to her or she is gona get away 😂
Also wondering if you could use a varible speed setup on it without burning out the winding?
Dose it work?
Is it compatible for 8mm bits?
Yes it cam with a 8mm colit
que marca es esa maquina
Best cheap trimmer router is the Katsu which is a copy of the Makita one

Thanks for the review. Are those David Clark ear defenders ?

Thank you for your quick reply what decent bits would you recommend
@@roystheboy hi your welcome, basicly if they cost over £10 for 1 then there's a good chance they will be good
From where did you buy it
I guess you didn't watch all the video, as I did tell you twice. Please do me the honour of trying again
Anyone else have a problem. With the plastic holder slipping and changing depth half way through trimming
@evergladescreations9641, yes I had the same problem but I was able to correct it by taking the router motor out of the plastic holder and wrapping the motor with a layer or two of black wide Gorilla tape and that make the router fit snuggly in the plastic holder, also you could also prevent from moving by using a large hose clamp, hope this, although this was a year ago you probably found a solution.

Nice work! You should clamp the piece before working on it mate you you only get one pair one fingers aye

As you're sure as the router your hands are going out of shot because you were zoomed into close
sorry
Good information but would have been better
presented if we could see all of you while you were explaining how it works.
Really! Why thank you kind Sir
Best Intro....ever!!
Thanks mate.

It's a Makita 3709 knock-off
Yes I guess but only £20 You could buy 10 and still have change
I just got a Makita 0701 clone off Amazon for 50 and came with bits and guide along with other attachments. So far everything runs smooth
👍👌
Hi the Katsu has a metal base and not must more
Yes I guess but the goal was as cheap as I could and the base is not so bad really
David Gladden not a criticism just thought it may help your viewers
