Cheap Skil 1825 10 Amp 1/2-Inch Hybrid Router Review

this is not a high-end tool which would cost much more but it is great for the price. what is particularly attractive about it is SKIL's focus upon the system of use in contrast to discrete tools like this router. the cornerstone of their tool system is the SKIL workbench which includes a router mounting plate that just snaps into the workbench. as part of this system the router is more valuable than it is on its own.

Skil 1825 10 Amp 1/2-Inch Hybrid Router Specifications

There's no tool like a router for edging, trimming or cutting, and there's nothing like a plunge router for accurate detailed scrolling or inlay work. Skil's new 2-1/4 horsepower combo router comes with interchangeable fixed and plunge bases (can plunge cut up to 2 inches when using the plunge base). The variable speed motor can perform all the functions needed in a home workshop or on the job site while drawing only 11 amps at full RPM. The 1/4-inch and 1/2-inch quick-change collets accept a wide range of bits and cutters. The Skil 1825's Micro-Fine Depth Adjustment makes bit depth adjustments fast, easy and accurate while the soft-grip handles are ergonomically designed for comfort and ease of use. The wide base opening allows for quick and easy bit changes plus the Built-in Work Light illuminates a pattern or an outline for more accurate cuts. Accepts Skil's 91018 18-Piece Carbide Router Bit Set as well as most other brands of 1/4-inch and 1/2-inch bits.

Ideal for woodworkers, carpenters and cabinet makers.

Applications: Use the Skil 1825 for making cabinets or shelves, decorative inlay work and for sink or fixture cuts in a wide range of countertop materials, as well as for mortising hinge plates or inlays, dovetailing cabinet drawers or edging counter tops. --C. Dwight Barnett
