Excellent! =D> :occasion5: My beer cans just don't make that sound .............................

I have a very old Makita router model ??? which is permanently mounted to my router table. It does not have the 'click' thing to hold the switch in, so I used a cable tie to keep it in. (also used wire, tape etc) Cheers Jaco
