does anyone know anything about them?other than they used to be called centec.
like to know how old the router is if anyone can help,thanks
 
thanks fella you mention your collets broke there is a chap on ebay sells the replacement collets(1/4 and 3/8 and 1/2inch) on ebay as well as replacement bushes if you need any.
can you or anyone tell me if theres any reason why i couldnt rig up a speed control to it?thanks
 
Thanks for the info on the collets, I will definitely look for them and get some. I was unaware it would take a 1/2" one so thats a bonus!

I plan on making mine in to a portable router table.

As for the speed control, can't help you there. Do you have any more info?
