I just wanted to draw attention to a great tool I purchased last week. I bought it from Stewart McDonald at www.stewmac.com. It's a Precision Router Base to be used with a Dremel or Foredom type rotary tool. I've been using it to carve a sound hole cover and am really impressed with it. I hope to add accessories to it and maybe someday a Foredom rotary tool. The only thing I could possibly say against it is it would be nicer if the bass was Stainless Steel. It is aluminum and if I don't keep it waxed it leaves gray marking on the wood. This is what it looks like:
I've been working on this with it:
It is great for working on bridges, nuts and clean fret slots, etc.

I just so love tools..even more impressive than the picture is YOU GUYS that share all the info..(must say the picture is VERY COOL..looks fantastic..THANKS
Beautiful work!! Over the top IMO, fabulous
Thanks for the comments, stringybark and terry, I have a confession to make. On the hole cover pictured, I decided that before I sanded any more, I had better route the rabbit around the outside so I would know how much I could sand the outer rim. I routed on the wrong side! Holding a sign that says STUPID! Anyway it was a big goof, and so I cut a new one and started over. This time routed the rabbit early and got it in the correct side. Now sand, sand, sand,,,,
