[Emerald Pete]

Hi Pete

Welcome to the forum.

I'm sorry I can't help but I've added Triton to your heading, as we have a member who is a Triton demonstrator.

Cheers
Neil

I have no experience of either the Woodrat, or the Little Rat, but according to their site, the Little Rat "Utilizes any router."

Ray, I don't need the obvious pointed out to me in bold italics. I am after feedback from anyone who has tried the combination.......Peter

pete stop being australian, and think. :roll: :twisted:

the question should surely be has anyone any experience with a triton router on either of the rat products, and what difficulties have you experienced?

are there any special things i need to think about or consider????

try being polite, especially since these are your first posts, you certainly have not yet earnt the right to be rude to any of us :-$ [-(

paul :wink:

Thanks Paul, surely asking for 'feedback' encapsulates everything you wrote. I felt Ray's comment was condescending & not helpful at all, if that was not his intent, I apologize. Forums, like these, are for the sharing of our knowledge & experience. Look at my dilemma, a DW621 costs $400 plus whatever for a plunge thingy but fits straight on. The Triton costs $300 & has a built in plunge thingy BUT, the Benchmark site suggests that the parallel part of the opening is not wide enough to allow the collet to be wound to the lock position for bit changes. Is it an issue only when jigs obstruct the wider part of the opening? I would have taken this post to the Woodrat forum but, it is not working....Peter
As for being Australian?????
