Hand Router / Bovenfrees

This equipment is safety category 6: Other equipment with no limits.

This equipment is Noise Category 2:
Can be used at all hours, but in moderation.
Be considerate; if you feel you need to wear ear protection,
then only use the tool between 07:00 and 19:00.

Electric hand router. We have several ones; from very light to quite heavy as well as a Router Table.

Be very careful with the collet sizes; we have both Imperial and Metric ones; in 1/4th of an inch; 6mm and 8mm.

Know that 1/4 of an inch is almost 6mm - but not quite. Putting a 6mm bit into a 1/4th of an inch collet or vise versa will absolotely ruin it. And they are expensive and hard to replace (long lead team; 30-60 euro's).

So check that your cutter shank fits absolutely perfectly in the collet; with virtually no wobble even when not yet tightened.
