So fare ive been able to do all my jobs with a dremel. But there have been times when a router would have been a lot faster. Im sure ill invest in one someday. But yes Diane that little bosch one looks like a winner. Its a bit pricey though.

Indispensable for production work.  For one-off pieces that you're not rushing, there's *always* a hand-powered alternative -- my Stanley 271 router plane gets more use than my PC693 plunger. 

 

Got a drill press?  Here's how to convert it into an overarm router for less than $2.00:

Another couple snow in days in southern KS, so I had to try it.  Decided to make a "Plank-caster".... here's the results so far....
