I am after a 1/4" router for hand held work and was hoping you good folk could give an unbiased, considered and qualified opinion! :wink: At the moment I am torn between the Trend T5 and the Dewalt DW621K. I would like a fine height adjuster and preferably a fine adjuster for the fence. Can...

Hi, I recently bought an axi wp150 planer and after unpacking it found this in the box... http://s804.photobucket.com/albums/yy32 ... g&newest=1 I cant find any reference to it in the instructions or parts list. It wasn't used to package anything and I can find no obvious use for it. I am...
